I recently installed WampServer 3.2 64-bit full install after installing the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable libraries from [wampserver.aviatechno.net]

Thanks for providing the direct links on the above site and providing the Tool to check if the VC++ packages needed to Wampserver 3 are installed correctly. Very useful

The following are the answers requested

2 - Version WampServer (Specify version number AND whether 32 or 64 bit) - WampServer 3.2 64-bit full install
3 - Apache Version - 2.4.41
4 - PHP Version - PHP 7.4.0
5 - MySQL Version - MySQL 5.7.28
5a - MariaDB version if applicable
6 - What color is the WampServer icon (in the notification area of the taskbar) - green

I initially was not able to access MySQL from my web application (TNG) without specifying 3308 as the port.

I was also getting
Address Not Found for www.localhost.com

which I finally resolved by changing the about:config for SeaMonkey based on the following entry that I found in stackoverflow pertaining to Firefox redirecting to www.localhost.com

[stackoverflow.com]

I was also getting Connection Interrupted error on a specific script, that I was able to resolve by adding the following to the end of httpd.conf to increase the Apache stack size to 8MB.

<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
ThreadStackSize 8388608
</IfModule>

based on another stackoverflow entry

[stackoverflow.com]

In my attempts to resolve why my script was not running, I ended up uninstalling WampServer 3.2 and installing my previous full install of WampServer 3.1.7

My question is why does WampServer 3.2 require a port specification to access the MySQL database when it was not required on the full install of 3.1.7 64-bit nor is it required when upgrading 3.1.7 to 3.1.9 and then 3.2?

Why is the ThreadStackSize entry not included in the WampServer httpd.conf?

Thanks for making it easier to check that one has all the required Visual C++ modules and for making it easier to define the Virtual Hosts.
