Wordpress redirecting to htdocs folder in xampp

I had setup wordpress on /blog directory. Everything was perfect. Today I tried to tweak 2-3 things as it was not coming up on server. I came to know about siteurl and home to be defined. But after a little while its not working now anymore. I rolled back all changes (there were only 3 changes), but still issue is not getting solved. So while I configured wordpress it was running on http://localhost:5000/blog. For this reason, options table is also having this 

1   siteurl http://localhost:5000/blog  yes
2   home    http://localhost:5000/blog  yes
3   blogname    Stockarea   yes
4   blogdescription Just another WordPress site yes

But now when I am running it back on same url that is http://localhost:5000/blog it redirects me to http://localhost/blog and gives error 404 - Object not found!. I have rolled back everything to its initial state and still it is like this.

I even tried to add this in wp_config.php

define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://localhost:5000' );
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://localhost:5000' )

But no luck at all. Tried restarting xampp server still no luck. Why is wordpress redirecting me to htdocs folder

Open wp-config.php file in the WordPress folder, and set site 

url(define('WP_SITEURL','http://localhost:5000/Stockarea/index.php');

Open wp-config.php file in the WordPress folder, and set following parameter.

define('WP_HOME','http://localhost:5000/blog');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://localhost:5000/blog');

Please check your .htaccess file, hope the below code solve your issue :

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
