xampp component status check failure [133278]?

Question

this errors pops up when executing xampp control panel, anyone what it means and how to resolve it?

Answer 1

I moved the xampp directory to a different place and run setup_xampp.bat. That solved the problem for me.

Answer 2

I installed from the ZIP file instead of the Windows Installer, and this resolved my issue. Appears to be a known bug with the Installer on Win 7 64 bit.
