How do I enable half star ratings on itunes for Windows 10?

I would like to enable half star ratings on itunes for Windows 10? There seems to be lots of options on the Internet but I have not been able to find one that works properly for Windows 10.

Windows, Windows 10

This method used to work: https://www.technipages.com/itunes-enable-half-star-ratings.


For iTunes downloaded from apple.com:

  • "C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe" /setPrefInt allow-half-stars 1

This works for me with iTunes 12.10.10.7 on Windows 7.


For iTunes installed via Microsoft Store - locate the iTunes.exe file within C:\Program Files\WindowsApps and modify the command above accordingly.

  • "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\AppleInc.iTunes_12110.26.53016.0_x64__nzyj5cx40ttqa\iTunes.exe" /setPrefInt allow-half-stars 1

This is what I tried, but it doesn't appear to work with iTunes 12.11.0.26 from the Microsoft Store running on Windows 10. It also requires a bit of hack getting access to the WindowsApps folder. If I get time I might try switching to the other installer to see if it makes a difference.
