the root cause is default port 8080 is already being used, so in order to use it again, you need to kill PID used by that port, and then you can run again.

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_191\bin>netstat -ano|find "8080"
  TCP    0.0.0.0:8080           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       5256
  TCP    [::]:8080              [::]:0                 LISTENING       5256

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_191\bin>taskkill /PID 5256 /F
SUCCESS: The process with PID 5256 has been terminated.

then you can start again

The root cause is that the requested http port is used by a different application if you started jenkins with command line: java -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=8080 change it to e.g.: java -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=8383
