So opening ports from router, turning off firewall and not having Skype I still can't get MySQL to stay running. It runs and then crashes straight away. The two logs can be found below. I had multiple xampp installs but deleted all but the original and turned the automatic processes off. What else can I do?

I would suggest you do deinstall every single rest of Xampp and reinstall it afterwards. It seems like you killed all your modules, but I am not sure thoug
