iTunes keeps crashing version 12.5.2!!

Try starting the Event Viewer from the search box in the start menu, type in the text Event Viewer until you see a suitable result then click on it. Launch iTunes, which will presumably crash. Look in the application log and select the recent error.

If you're seeing a WebKit.dll related error then enter one of the following in an elevated command prompt (right-click the command prompt shortcut and click run as administrator) where the path to your version of WebKit.dll indicates which you should choose:

SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support

SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support

Some users seem to have had difficulty updating the path via the command prompt. An alternative is to use the System control panel, then Advanced system settings > Environment Variables > Path, where you would one of the following as indicated by the path listed in the error message:

;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support

;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support

Once I had successfully accessed the store on the system that was having problems I was able to revert to the original setting for the path, but at least one user has reported that they need to keep this tweak in place, at least for the 12.5.1.21 build.

Same issue as iTunes Crashes When Adding Songs, After Latest Update

Yes, the iTunes installers section covers rolling back to an earlier build, which may be the best approach for now for this particular error.

Not an error I recall running into. See https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/578396fd-29c0-4dd3-b00 2-5e2e8df1b398/exception-code-0xc0000374… which suggests that this is a heap corruption error, though doesn't really give any hints about how to avoid it. I guess one approach is to install progressively older versions to iTunes to see if one works normally.
