    This is how I did it:

    – Start > Settings > search for service > select View local services
    – scroll all the way to to the bottom to World Wide Web Publishing Service
    – right click on it and select Properties
    – click Stop
    – Select Manual from Startup type
    – Click Apply and then OK

    Alternatively, you can change WAMP port like 8080.

    Click on WAMP
    Apache=>httpconf=>

    Change value Listen 80 to Listen 8080. Restart all services at WAMP.
    Now you can access your site at http://localhost:8080/wp
