How to get rid of PWA on port 8080 - windows

I tried developing a PWA few weeks back and tested it on http://localhost:8080. I have stopped working on that project now, but still when I http://localhost:8080 it still contains the home page of the PWA. I tried to kill the process on 8080 using the PID but the PID it give is 4 and when I try to kill the process using cmd or powershell (with run as admin) it says
ERROR: The process with PID 4 could not be terminated.
Reason: Access Denied.
It would be great if someone can share share some thoughts on what to do here

How can I determine which localhost port is running?

I just find out that when I simply type 'localhost' in the url without anything more in the path, the browser displays a message from a local backend test project in Express that I've made days ago.
I'm trying to stop this process.
I was sure that to have started this server on port 3001 but when I try to kill it , it says that there is no process running on this port.
I tried to kill 8080 as well, but the message is still displayed.
Obviously, I refreshed the page, I tried on several different browser, even restarted my computer.
How can i determine which port is running?
How can I stop the process?
[Edit]:
Here's what I keep receiving :
<html><head></head><body><h1>It works!</h1>
</body></html>
You could use lsof:
lsof -i #localhost
Can you try this command :
sudo lsof -nP -i4TCP:80

How to kill process if access is denied and the pid belongs to the System

I am trying to run my program in Java and get the message that the port is already in use, so my program is not executed.
I have tried to open cmd as admin and then kill the process however I faced the message
"access is denied"
after that, I have tried to kill it using task manager, no success.
-> the next step I have downloaded process Explorer which was as the same as task manager and found that pid belongs to System and when I clicked kill process I got the same results
"access is denied"
I have tried also ->Properties->security, but permissions button is not clickable. I also tried to restart my pc with no success. I also googled it and got answers but they were not suitable for my case. So, in this case, how can I fix it?

Port 8005 is used By Windows 10 System Process

Since today, the port 8005 is used for a Windows System Process. When i try to acces to the url http:localhost:8005 ,i can see a Blank Web Page, with no code and no info from any Web Server (No welcome web page or similar).
With the netstat command i can see that the process that uses this port is System process. Any idea why windows is using suddenly this port?
EDIT: Not duplicate question. I don't have another Tomcat installation, the problem comes from a windows process, not for another tomcat instance.
Check if port 8005 is really in use by Windows :
Install and run Sysinternals TCPView and
Check if the line with "Local Port" 8005 has as "Process" System
Or check the file c:\Windows\CCM\Logs\DeltaDownload.log for port 8005
If the port is in use by system, go to Computer Management and stop the service "SMS Agent Host" or open a command prompt as administrator and type:
sc stop CcmExec
The problems comes from a Windows Service:

Not from another Tomcat instance.
I too was facing the same with windows 10 and ran the command netstat -a -b which showed CmRcService.exe is using the port 8005 on the machine.
The most weird part is sometimes if i hit localhost:8005 in the browser url its asking for username and password to access the page and in the developers tools I cannot see any application name or data whatsoever

XAMPP Tomcat Not Stopping

I have XAMPP installed on my Windows machine,
I am unable to stop the Tomcat server.
I have tried to kill the process with the Process Id as well,
But weirdly it's not showing in the Task Manager nor the local Services,
Which I referred from here -
apache service not stopping in xampp
Here's my XAMPP Control Panel screenshot -
Here's the Task Manager, I can't find the Process ID 3104 as shown in the XAMPP Control Panel-
I did run the command "Services.msc" to find and stop it but, no luck there either.
You should check the PID and verify that it is not associated with any other service/process mistaken for Tomcat by XAMPP.
In my case I had Jenkins running on port 8080 and starting XAMPP it was "guessing" that Tomcat was already running:
In reality, looking at the PID (198092 in my case) it was associated with java.exe:
and this was a process generated by my Jenkins server running on that port:
This is why you cannot stop Tomcat from there... (it is not Tomcat running on 8080).
To verify this and properly start Tomcat you can try this:
Stopping Jenkins:
Will remove the service running on 8080 and XAMPP is able to correctly detect that Tomcat is not running:
At this point you can Start Tomcat in XAMPP (and it should start for real this time):
Going to the localhost page, port 8080 you will have a proof of it:
If you want you can now successfully stop it from XAMPP:
On Windows:
XAMPP opens a shell(CMD) on starting tomcat just close that shell.

Port localhost:3000 does not respond

I use Windows and I ran the .msi.
localhost:3000 does not respond. I activated and rested iis and cannot see anything under 3000. How can I check if the port is active and if anybody s listening? I tried lsof -i in cmd and I get the error "lsof unrecognized batch file"
Also, when I run meteor from the directory with the example or dummy, I do not have anything else following like
..running, port localhost:3000 active
It doesn't look like the command 'meteor' does anything on my machine.
Do I need to put my meteor folder inside the installation one (i.e. C:/Program Files(x86)/meteor)
Since this question was posted, Meteor has gotten an official Windows installer. See if it works now.
