    iTunes 12 iconiTunes 12 is not only running on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, but iTunes 12 is also compatible to Windows 10 Technical Preview. The system requirements for iTunes 12 for Windows are a PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor, 512MB of RAM, 400MB of available disk space and Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store. It seems that there are no additional prerequisites needed, as it is for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 systems, e.g. the Windows 8 Media Center.

    Here’s how to proceed the iTunes 12 installation on Windows 10 Technical Preview:

    I’m really delighted that iTunes 12 is compatible to Windows 10 Technical preview, running in dual-boot on my old Acer Aspire 1810 T with Windows 8.1 Update installed parallelly. What are your findings? Let us know and comment!

    Stay tuned! 😉

      Hi, I did follow exactly your steps ,but I am still not able to get iTunes running on Windows 10.
      I get an error, it says:

      Microsoft.VC80CRT ,type=”win32″ ,version=”8.0.50727.6195″,publicKeyToken=”1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b” ,processorArchitecture=”amd64″. HRESULT: 0x80073715.

      Can you help? I really don’t know, what to do.
      Thank you.

          Hi Gee, Thank you for your tips and advices, but I give up…. I followed every step, every link, you posted, I did reboot more than 20 times I spent now over 10 hours to find a way to install iTunes back on my laptop after upgrading to windows 10. I get always the same error message:
          Microsoft.VC80CRT ,type=”win32″ ,version=”8.0.50727.6195″,publicKeyToken=”1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b” ,processorArchitecture=”amd64″. HRESULT: 0x80073715. ,
          ” the iTunes Helper could not get started error 2 (windows 2),”
          when I ignored the error the program would install , when I try to open it says APPLE APPLICATION SUPPORT WAS NOT FOUND … error 2. and so on…always the same, then I clean and delete all the files from APPLE in the order you said, and check in Program Files , that nothing is there and reboot again …. and start from the beginning…. and again the same…..
          The bad thing is I have some programs that ONLY work with iTunes, that’s why I am so devastated … I don’t know what to do. Is there a way to fix this? I can’t go back to windows 7.
          Thank you.

      I also installed iTunes 12 on my Windows 10 technical preview PC and when I click on it to open it, it simply will not open. Literally nothing happens. I have had task manager open while doing it, and still nothing happens. Thoughts?
