Laragon Exception: "The service cannot be started..." after enabling SSL
For development purposes I use Laragon which usually spares you the hassle of manually setting up SQL and Apache. However, on my new desktop I ran into an issue when I tried to enable SSL for Apache: Oh no, Laragon detected exceptions! The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it After showing the message Laragon just closes. On the other hand, the problem does not occur if I just start the services without SSL enabled.
