Why i cant use the 3306 port when i install MySQL?

I am trying to install mySQL but on the type and networking section said that the port of 3306 is already in use. What can i do? I already have the xampp on my pc! This port is used by xampp? i have to put it on an other port or what?

Expecting someone to help me!

    You would need to change the port of either XAMPP or Mysql in the configuration.

    You can simply rerun the installer of MySQL and change it in the setup config in "Type and Networking" – "Development Computer" – "TCP/IP" – Enter another port which is not used

    if you already have installed Xampp you change the port from the config after opening the Xampp, Then Mysql will select the port that is available. if error still persist then check which ports are available using:

    netstat -an | find "your_port"
