You can open the Windows event viewer to try to get more information about the errors   in the  Application  section of the Windows logs  there is a good chance you will find error messages from Apache   At least I found what was wrong in my case there

I solved the problem this way    On the orange WAMP icon  click Apache   Service   Test Port 80  Came back with  Port 80 not accessible --  could be Skype   Sign out from Skype and close program  Click orange icon and hit Apache   Service   Install Service Click orange icon and hit Apache   Service   Start Service Click orange icon and hit Put Online Icon turns green and service is started and online

My solution to fix that problem was the following   Start   search   cmd exe  Run as administrator   Inside the Command Prompt  cmd exe  type   cd c  wamp bin apache ApacheX X X bin httpd exe -e debug     Note that the ApacheX X X is the version of the Apache wamp is running   This should output what the apache server is doing   The error that causes Apache from loading should be in there   My problem was that httpd conf was trying to load a DLL that was missing or was corrupted  php5apache2 4 dll    As soon as I overwrote this file  I restarted Wamp and everything ran smooth

You just need Visual C   runtime 2015 installed  if you change your php version to the newest version you will get the error for it  this is why apache has php dependency error

Check your apache error log  I had this error   error   OS 5 Access is denied     could not open transfer log file C  wamp logs access log  Unable to open logs  Then I rename my  access log  to other name  you can delete if you don t need never see your access log  Then restart your apache service  This happen because the file size too big  I think if you trying to open this file using notepad  it will not open  I tried to open that before  Hope it help
