I had the same problem on two different computers (XP and Win 7 32 bit), with varying error numbers.

On my Windows XP the problem was due to something else listening on port 80. On my Win 7, I renamed the folder to something else and ran setup_xampp.bat and it solved it.

Renaming the folder back to the original name (C:\XAMPP) and running the setup brought the problem back, so I ended up leaving it C:\XAMPP2.

Just remove Key "Install_Dir" completely from Windows Registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\xampp] and Xampp Control will start without error message. Xamp Control then shows "No installer package found" in status window after start.

Another solution is to put the path to the xampp folder into the registry node. Below is the .reg example.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\xampp]
"Install_Dir"="C:\\xampp"

I moved the xampp directory to a different place and run setup_xampp.bat. That solved the problem for me.

I installed from the ZIP file instead of the Windows Installer, and this resolved my issue. Appears to be a known bug with the Installer on Win 7 64 bit.

I have XAMPP on my USB and I think the problem is that you have to relotact it by running the setup_xampp.bat file in the root folder.

Make sure you do you not use fixed letters if it is on a removable device.
