iTunes on PC is locked
I uploaded tunes to PC and now the iTunes program is locked (iTunes Library itl).
Windows, Windows 10
Question marked as
It is possible that a corrupt preference file may cause iTunes to fail at launch with one of these errors:
- The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.
- The folder “iTunes” is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder.
- The iTunes Library.itl cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the 'iTunes' folder in the 'Music' folder.
It may be worth trying the shift-start-iTunes method (option on a Mac) to actively select the .itl file that should contain your library. If you still get the error message try Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows and/or check for interference from anti-virus software.
