Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly xampp 3.2.4

When I open XAMPP (xampp v3.2.4 in windows 10) and click start MySQL button and it gives me an error. I had started it just before, but now it isn't working.

error:

12:50:26 PM  [mysql]    Status change detected: stopped
12:50:26 PM  [mysql]    Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly.
12:50:26 PM  [mysql]    This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,

12:50:26 PM  [mysql]    If you need more help, copy and post this

so, I check log:

I fixed using this article:

Rename the “data” folder

  • Rename the “data” folder to “data-oldfiles”.
  • This is very important to rename the data directory to any new directory name.

Create a new “data” folder

  • Create a new folder and give the folder name as “data“
  • To solve the problem we need to create a new “data” directory in the mysql database.

Copy content from “backup” folder

  • Go to the “backup” folder and copy all files.
  • Paste the files from backup folder to data folder
  • Now start the MySQL database from XAMPP.
  • Now, your MySQL database will start properly without showing any error.

Transfer all MySQL projects Database, Data file & Log files

  • If you have many database which was used for various projects, then you have to transfer all database from “data-oldfiles” folder to “data” folder.
  • Copy all databases from the data-old files and paste to the data folder.
  • Now you have to copy the data file “ibdata1” & all log files “ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 ” from data-old files folder to the data folder. If you have many id_logiles then copied all of them.

you can end task mysqld.exe or mysqld on task manager. Then run again MySql. It will work. (On Off Engineering).
