XAMPP SSL Configuration Tutorial Configure SSL on Localhost

This tutorial takes you through the steps on configuring SSL on XAMPP primarily with the localhost, but this can be applied to your domain name. This tutorial is just for demonstration.

00:00 Introduction
00:23 Start configuration (Configure HTTP V-hosts)
01:48 Make SSL Keys
04:19 Configure Chrome

Configuration code:

Copy of the Apache folder (XAMPP version 7.4.7)

There is a link to a copy of a working Apache Directory with configuration detailed in this tutorial. You should be able to copy and paste that into your version of XAMPP - v7.4.7

Now my xampp isn't starting it's showing error when I turn on apache

What you have done after all of this, is something that my XAMPP was doing by default. I wanted a green lock icon to appear when I load localhost. I would say, waste of time.
