[FIXED] How to stop XAMPP's MySQL Service after updating MariaDB

Issue

I've updated my MariaDB to version 10.3.14 using this steps (link)
It has been successfully installed, but when I tried to stop the MySQL Service from XAMPP Control Panel, it won't stop.
The status always shows like this:

[mysql] Attempting to stop MySQL app...

Like the picture below:


How can I stop that?

Solution

You can kill the process operating on port 3306.

Type in CMD (Command Prompt) if you have windows:

netstat -ano | findstr :<yourPortNumber>

put your port number in the diamond brackets.

then put the process ID in diamond brackets,

taskkill /PID <typeyourPIDhere> /F
