Error message hkey_local_machine\software\classes\itunes.aifc keeps appearing when updating. Then update uninstalls. I was trying to fix a missing driver error.

  3. Tap the plus symbol next to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Right-click on the iTunes.aifc key and click Permissions... to see what is going on. My current permissions for the iTunes.aifc key are shown below: Giving Administrators and/or yourself Full Control should be enough to let the installer make changes. Alternatively you could delete the key and let the iTunes installer recreate it.
