Ignition service won't start. I read that there might another app using port 8088 but I couldn't find which one. So I'm not sure if this is the issue! Please advise.

Your screenshot shows process ID 9340 occupying port 8088. You'll have to figure out what that process is.

I found it! It was influxdb that apparently got installed when I installed ifm software. Thank you, I was previously only looking on TaskManager/Service and I couldn't see that PID running. I found it in TaskManager/Details.
