According to VMWare Knowledge base article, connection to VMware Workstation Server (the shared virtual machines) is administered by the VMware Host Agent service. The service uses TCP ports 80 and 443. This service is also used by other VMware products, including VMware Server and vSphere, and provides additional capabilities.

This will block the execution of the Apache service on Bearsampp.

You can change the VMware Workstation Server ports when you install Workstation and after Workstation is installed.
To connect from a second instance of Workstation to Workstation Server:

• Go to File > Connect to Server.
• Enter the host name or IP address of the host machine running Workstation Server.
• When prompted, login with the username and password of a local administrator on the remote host.

Note: If the VMware Workstation Server service running on the remote server is not using the default port, you must specify the port number. For example, remotehost:444.

With the Shared VMs Workstation preferences, you can also disable the server. To access the Shared VMs Workstation preferences:

• Go to Edit > Preferences.
• Click the Shared VMs tab.

Since Chrome 58, self-signed certificates generated with Bearsampp are no longer accepted and you will have the error NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID if you go to https://localhost.  To resolve this you can add the .crt files to the local trusted certificate store using the steps below.

• First go to the ssl folder of bearsampp and locate the .crt file then right click on the .crt file and select "Install certificate"
  
•  Next choose "local machine"
  
• Next choose "Place all certificates in the following store" and then select "Trusted Root Certificate Authorities"
  
• Now choose "finish"
  
• Repeats for each .crt
• Close and reopen the browser
