iTunes has stopped working/Quicktime uninstall HKEY error!!
Ok so I just bought a brand new computer that is Windows Vista 64-bit. I installed iTunes and Quicktime the 64 bit version and everything was great until it stopped working. Data execution prevention will not let iTunes open. Here are the steps Ive taken in attempt to fix the problem.
*Uninstalling Itunes AND Quicktime*
--iTunes was successful but Quicktime still left a folder in Program Files, and was still listed on the programs list in control panel. So I deleted the Program Files folder. Now when I try to uninstall Quicktime I get this error:
Could not open key:
HKEY LOCALMACHINE32\software\classes\typelib\{B11F8D0B-BE5A-46E3-9485-EE692A8B2D3D}\1.0. Verify That you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
I tried going into regedit and manually deleting the key. That didnt work!
I also used the free ware program Revo Unistaller, which deletes the associated registry files and everything associated with an install. I did this with Quicktime and now it no longer in the Programs section in control panel, but when I try to reinstall quicktime it still asks me to repair or remove. I've tried both steps and each time I get the same error as stated above.
What can I do to fix this?
