Why Xampp control panel shows an error access denied upon launch [closed]

I am facing a problem with my Xampp control panel. Once I try to launch it, it pops out an error message saying:

"Error:Cannot create file "C:\xampp\xampp-control.ini". Access denied.

The version I installed is xampp-win32-5.6.23. When I try to start the apache module, below is the log respnse:

7:53:14 PM  [Apache]    Attempting to start Apache app...

7:53:17 PM  [Apache]    Status change detected: stopped
7:53:17 PM  [Apache]    Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
7:53:17 PM  [Apache]    This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies, 
7:53:17 PM  [Apache]    improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.

7:53:17 PM  [Apache]    If you need more help, copy and post this

My problem was solved by just running the app as an administrator.

Right click the xampp control panel> run as administrator.
