Make sure you dont already have a mysql process running.

Also, check this thread on the official Mysql forum, it might help

I tried to end the process with task manager, but now I am receiving an error that it has been disabled by the administrator.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Yes, you need to be an administrator to install programs etc.

logon to your admin account then ctrl+alt+del and end the process
