Can't install iTunes

Hello

I've been trying to install iTunes for a few days now.

Everytime I start the process, a pop up with some error shows up.

I googled this error, but I can't find any solutions...

I attached a picture of the error... The text is in Dutch, but I assume the error is the same in every language?

I am able to install an older version of iTunes, but this doesn't work with my iPhone SE. Is it because my laptop is too old? It is now running on Windows 10...

Please help!

Many thanks!!!

iPhone SE, iOS 10

The message "An error occurred during installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT, type="win32", version="8.0.50727.6195", publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b", processorArchitecture=..." may occur because a particular library file is not included in the distribution package supplied with iTunes or won't install for some unspecified reason. Installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update before attempting to reinstall iTunes may help.

When reinstalling iTunes right-click on the installer and run as administrator.
