apparently closing the program completely didn't do the trick. So what is the "standard" way to restart xampp?

open cmd.exe

netstat -ano

You'll get something like:

Proto   Local address   Foreign address State   PID
TCP 0.0.0.0:80  0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   460
TCP 0.0.0.0:135 0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   16…
TCP 0.0.0.0:445 0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   4
TCP 0.0.0.0:1024    0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   4…
TCP 0.0.0.0:1025    0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   1…
TCP 0.0.0.0:42510   0.0.0.0:0   LISTENING   …

look for the PID of port 80

then use taskkill to kill it
