What program in Windows 10 uses port 80? [closed]

Question

I updated my Windows 7 PC to Windows 10. When I start AMPPS it says port 80 is used by another program. What program uses port 80?

Answer 1

It's probably the W3SVC (World Wide Web Publishing Service) service. See the answer below:

Per phpvillian's answer, you can also run the following to help determine the culprit (make sure you open the command line with elevated privileges, e.g. "Run as administrator"):

netstat -a -b  

Answer 2

You're likely referring to Skype as it's notorious to using port 80 without consideration. Open the command prompt and type netstat -a -b to get your answer. This question has been answered already and explains how to use netstat.
