If the XAMPP server is running for the moment, stop XAMPP server.

Follow these steps to change the port number.

Open the file in following location.

[XAMPP Installation Folder]/apache/conf/httpd.conf

Open the httpd.conf file and search for the String:

Listen 80

This is the port number used by XAMMP.

Then search for the string ServerName and update the Port Number which you entered earlier for Listen

Now save and re-start XAMPP server.
