Port Forwarding not working

Everytime time i got to my firewall settings and go to port forward it always says: The specified port(s) are being used by other configurations. Please check your configurations of Remote Management, Firewall Rules, UPnP Port Mapping table, RIP, and Internet connection type. Someone please help me try to fix this I have been trying to work this out for a while now Thanks.

      Hello ITsLeviBro

       

      Is it giving this message for all ports you try to forward or is it just certain ports?

      Hello noahN_42

       

      What Modem/router do you have and what ISP are you on and also what port are you trying to open.
