    Hello, Vegan Advocate!

     

    I know how important it is to be able to run iTunes properly, as well. Without knowing what steps you have done to troubleshoot the issue, you might want to try the steps in this article:

     

    Fix unexpected quits or launch issues in iTunes for Windows.

     

    This will give you some great steps to troubleshoot, as well as a link to this article here if the steps don't work: 

     

    Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows 7 and later 

     

    If you do get to that step and have to reinstall, just be sure you uninstall the Apple components in the order listed in the article.

     

    Remove iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel

    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:

    1. iTunes
    2. Apple Software Update
    3. Apple Mobile Device Support
    4. Bonjour
    5. Apple Application Support 32-bit
    6. Apple Application Support 64-bit

    On some systems, iTunes might install two versions of Apple Application Support. This is expected. If both are present, be sure to uninstall both versions.

     

    Cheers!

    Hello again!

     

    Since those steps didn't work, it might be best top get in contact with local support. You can find the best options available to you by going to this link: Contact Apple Support Just be sure you choose iTunes as the affected product.

     

    Have a great day!

    I have iTunes on a notebook box with Windows 7 and it works with audio.

    I also have it on build 10586 which does not seem to have issues

    so I am wondering if there are issues with the more recent builds
