Click on the WAMP server icon and from the menu under Config Files select httpd conf  A long text file will open up in notepad  In this file scroll down to the line that reads Port 80 and change this to read Port 8080  Save the file and close notepad  Once again click on the wamp server icon and select restart all services  One more change needs to be made before we are done  In Windows Explorer find the location where WAMP server was installed which is by Default C  Wamp

From the wampserver 3 x onwards  changing the listening port number of Apache does not require any particular Apache skills  http conf  virtualhost       you just have to click button - assuming you re running Windows OS      In the tray  right click green running WAMP icon Select menu Tools In the section Port used by Apache  xx  click Use a port other than 80  i e  default port configuration  Enter the desired port number in the popup window - usually 8080 as alternative Web port   NB  For alternative port  check official IANA Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry

You could try changing Apache server to listen to some other port other than port 80   Click on yellow WAMP icon in your taskbar Choose Apache -  httpd conf Inside find these two lines of code   Listen 80 ServerName localhost 80 and change them to something like this  they are not one next to the other    Listen 8080 ServerName localhost 8080
