Havent found a Solution Yet

I have Windows Vista 64/ Please Help, I had itunes 10.3 and tried to update to 10.5, it wouldnt work. so I got all crazy and thought I needed to uninstall the itunes I had so it would work, NOT,still didnt work, then I restored my computer to before I tried to update, but the itunes I had wouldnt even pop up.

Ive used Revo Uninstaller/I tried Byetunes,and I still cant get all apple components off my computer. I dont even knoe if thats what i need to do to get Itunes to install. I have a large music library including movies that I cant even get to. Please help

What happens if you try to install iTunes again? Do you get any specific error messages?

Are you logged in as an Administrator? Can you right click on the iTunes setup file and choose "Run as Administrator" and see if it will install correctly?

Yes I tried that and it still says I dont have permission. When I try to take ownership, windows crashes and wont let me, I am able to expand and delete some of the many files that are there, by taking ownership individually, but not all of them. I have Apple Mobile Device Support in my Common Files that I cant get rid of,and Apple Software Update in my Program Files(x86)

Tutorial for running chkdsk in Vista\Win 7 located HERE.



Go HERE and read the tutorial that shows how to do SFC or System File Checker and running in a Elevated Command Prompt in Vista and Win7.

Weird. I has a reply all typed out but I must have forgot to hit submit. But it went something like this:

If it isn't working from the new user account we've narrowed it down to a system wide issue permissions problem and not just a user specific. I'm not sure what would cause problems like this so I'm going to ask for additional help from rshaffer61.

Please follow rshaffer61's suggestions and report back with the results.
