    http binds to port 80 in Win 10, and cannot be disabled


    Having upgraded to Win 10, I was pleasantly surprised at how well everything went, until I tried to start my Apache web server. Even though IIS is not installed, there is a http daemon running, that is (a) bound to port 80, and (b) doesn't appear in the services panel. So I stopped the service, using 'net stop http', and got a load of warnings about dependencies. Great, Apache now runs .. yay! However, i then tried to print something, and Windows declared that I had no printers, even though they could be seen in the control panel. So, web services, on port 80, are used internally for things like Upnp, SSDP, and cannot be used for 'normal' web servers ........ great!

  3. System process blocks Port 80

    First of all: I'm running the latest version of Windows 10 Pro.

    After upgrading Windows 10 to the Creators update the System process (PID 4) always blocks Port 80. If I enable IIS it works perfectly fine, once I disable it Port 80 is blocked again. When accessing Port 80 via HTTP the reply is
    a 404 error, the Server Header says Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0.

    I have already tried (all) possible solutions that can be found via Google:

    - Disabling WWW Publishing Service

    - Disabling SQL Server Reporting Services (I don't have a service like this running on my PC)

    - Running "net stop http" via Admin CMD

    This issue is super annoying and just makes me want to delete Windows.

    http binds to port 80 in Win 10, and cannot be disabled

    What's the problem with using, let's say, 8080? I get it that port 80 being blocked by default is subpar. Need to check that on my machine.

    That's exactly what I've done, but I should have the choice of what's running on port 80. Also, it took me a while to work out why Apache wouldn't start, and assumed that it was a Win 10 incompatibility; It should be the Windows services that avoid port 80, not the user!

  6. Is skype running? Skype likes to use port 80 for some reason. Just turn off skype and run your server then run skype again.

    I refer you to my original post .... it's the http daemon.
