The issue is with the permissions, just give write access to the file, you will not get error while you try to exit xampp …
It worked for me …

xampp-control.ini file somehow become ‘read only’. Just changing it to ‘full control‘ solved my problem.

Deleting the file and executing xampp-control.exe is also working.
xampp-control.exe will recreate the ini file with all the correct permissions.

Error caused due to incorrect xampp-control.ini file permission.
In order to fix this issue in a simple way:
- Open xampp folder > delete xampp-control.ini file
- Run the xampp application, it will recreate the xampp-control.ini file with proper file permission.
Now your application should look good.

My problem was solved by just running the app as an administrator.
Right click the xampp control panel, and then run as administrator.
You can send to desktop the xampp control panel (shortcut), then change permissions to always Run As Administrator[my image] , 1
and use the shortcut in everywhere you want to add (maybe in your taskbar)

It happens because the owner of xampp-control.ini is different than your user. A simple solution I did was to:
- copy it
- paste it somewhere
- copy it back to the original location
This way your user will become the owner of the file. No need to run Xampp Control Panel as Administrator which then prompts you each time you run it.

Best solution is to locate the file xampp-control.ini in C:xampp, right-click, select Properties then the Security tab and Edit the permissions to Allow all permissions for Everyone.

Problem
When I quit XAMPP, an error “Control Panel, an Error: Cannot create file “…xamppxampp-control.ini” occured.
And the message “Application Error (Not Responding)” displayed.
Environment
Windows10
XAMPP 7.4.10
What is xampp-control.ini?
If you’d like to know what XAMPP is, please refer the article “Installation of XAMPP“. xampp-control.ini is the configuration settings of XAMPP. It contains variables and values as below.
[Common] Edition= Editor=notepad.exe Browser= Debug=0 Debuglevel=0 TomcatVisible=1 Language=English [EnableModules] Apache=1 MySQL=1 FileZilla=1 Mercury=1 Tomcat=1
What is the meaning of error message?
The error message says “the access to xampp-control.ini was denied” and “the access violation occurred in the module xampp-control.exe”.
Cause of the error
Current user is unauthorized to the file “xampp-control.ini”.
Solution
Change the current user to the administrator
Run “xampp-control.exe” as a administrator. This is the best way.
Appendix
Another Solution: Change permission of xampp-control.ini
Right-click “xampp-control.ini” and open property.
Open Security tab and click “Edit” button to change the permission. Add current user and change its permission from “Read” to “Modify”. Refer ‘“Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file” error when you try to install, update or start a program or file‘ for details.

Thanks to TitledCerebellum’s suggestion, I’ve solved the issue!

Lately I found myself reinstalling XAMPP to try and make my wiki; but recently, whenever I try to exit out of it, I always get the following error message:
- Error: Cannot create file «C:xamppxampp-control.ini». Access is denied.
And when I try to exit out of it, the program crashes. What’s more, for all the times this happens, the icon for XAMPP is blank (as in instead of an orange square with an X, there’s a blank sheet of paper). If it helps, I’m trying to install the latest version of XAMPP, which I believe is 7.4.12.
Is it possible that I’ve set it up wrong, or is there something else I’m unaware of?

I saw the YouTube video and one of the other links (I forgot which one); and so far, I’m not running into the «can’t create .ini file». But it’s still too early to celebrate. I’ll be sure to let you know if I’m still running into that issue.

Actually, I think it’s working fine now. Thanks!
I am very, very new to Ubuntu and I just started using it.
I installed Xampp server on it by downloading Xampp from their website and installing it with Ubuntu Software.
But when I try to find it in Ubuntu Software installation list, it does not exist.
My first problem was by starting xampp:
cd ../../opt/lampp/
sudo ./lampp start
And I get this:
Starting XAMPP for Linux ...
XAMPP: Starting Apache...ok.
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...ok.
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...ok.
myName@MyName:/opt$ /opt/lampp/bin/mysqld_safe_helper: Can't create/write to file '/opt/lampp/var/mysql/MyName.err' (Errcode: 13 "Permission denied")
I was looking online for answer but for that I didn’t found anything that worked…
So I guess I should install everything by itself without xampp and now when I want to uninstall for some reason I can’t and probably I do not know how because it is not installed by apt-get so I cannot uninstall with apt-get remove.
And I searched for this also and everyone keeps talking about doing this:
sudo /opt/lampp/uninstall
But I do not have any uninstall files in entire lampp folder…
This is the version that I downloaded and installed:
xampp-linux-x64-5.6.30-0-installer.run
