Question
Even after repeated installation from <a href="https://download.moodle.org/download.php/windows/MoodleWindowsInstaller-latest-33.zip">https://download.moodle.org/download.php/windows/MoodleWindowsInstaller-latest-33.zip</a>
The database user showing 'root'
After clicking next , user changed to moodle-st,
after clicking, the following message shown:
Error: Database connection failed
It is possible that the database is overloaded or otherwise not running properly.
The site administrator should also check that the database details have been correctly specified in config.php
Warning: mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'moodle-st'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\Moodle\server\moodle\lib\dml\mysqli_native_moodle_database.php on line 79
Further, in XAMPP control panel v3.2.2 the following is showing in red color:

Answers:
This could be because XAMPP was not installed properly on your system. Please reinstall XAMPP and try again.
Please follow the steps in the installation sheet (2nd page) to install Moodle on Windows 10 in the below link.

Do all the steps as given in the sheet. Restart the XAMPP and try again.
The error in the above thread shows that the XAMPP is not running.

Check the steps 6,7,8 in the sheet. The xampp service should run without any errors. Rectify the error and then install moodle.
In your computer, check whether the port is occupied by some other software. You need to assign different port number if it gives error.
'Apache' and 'Mysql' are running
in XAMPP control panel v3.2.2 the following is showing in red color:

- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22884535/xampp-error-when-starting-tomcat
OR
Download and install the newer version of XAMPP:
https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
Also, how are you starting XAMPP?
Try running xampp-control.exe instead of xampp_start.exe
and in the control panel that opens up, start only 'Apache' and 'MySQL'
'Tomcat' service requires Java JDK or JRE to be installed on your system.
