3. You can uninstall the application using that port. This method is not recommended, If you don’t want to use that application in future then do it.

2. Right click on the “Command Prompt” then choose “Run as administrator”.
   
3. In “Command Prompt” type the following command:
   
   

   netstat –aon

   
   This command will give list of all the IP’s and port numbers used in your System.
   If you want to refine your result then use following command instead of above command:
   
   

   netstat –aon | findstr 0.0:80

   
   Above case is used to find the application which is using the 80 port number you can change port number which you want to find on your system. “|” is used to refine the result which is a built-in function of “Command Prompt”.

4. To kill the process using that port use the following command in “Command Prompt”:
   
   

   taskkill /F /PID 80

   
   Change the PID value from 80 to your required port value.
