Run vmware as administrator in windows or as root in linux  Then ctrl P to open preferences  then on shared vms  You can see a port number 443 by default  This is conflicting with apache that is why it is not starting  Change it to some other value say 8443  Then try to start apache it will run

Say you let vmware use port 443  and use another ssl port in XAMPP Apache  httpd-ssl conf     The red error will keep popping in XAMPP Control Panel  You also need to change the port in the XAMPP Control Panel configuration    In XAMPP Control Panel  click the  Config  button  top-left   Then click  Service and Port Settings   There you can set the ports to match the ports used by Apache
