"Web deployment agent service" is using port 80.

Hi Community,


After i de-installed ampps (alternative to Xampp) and re installed it , i get a message that port 80 is being used by another application.
I found out in "Windows task manager" that (NT Kernel & System) was the culprit. After googling further found that "Web deployment agent service" is using port 80.

C:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy\MsDepSvc.exe" -runService:MsDepSvc

What i did for now was to break "MsDepSvc.exe" by spacing it MsD epSvc.exe.  

What i would like to know is why did IIS start using port 80. Because ampps did not complain about it before!

And what is the solution. How can i change the port for IIS?

Thank You!
