[FIXED] How to start Apache and MySQL automatically when Windows 8 comes up

Issue

I am using XAMPP, version 3.2.1. I just installed it on Windows 8. Every time I need to go to the XAMPP Control Panel to start services (MySQL, Apache,...); in Windows 7 it started automatically when Windows came up.

Is there a way I can make it auto-start in Windows 8 too?

Solution

Start the control panel using "Run as administrator". Then you can install Apache and MySQL as a service:
