Apple really doesn't make it easy on Windows users. Ridiculous that I should have to do this.
To create a link FROM Program Files\Quicktime to where it really is. Mklink /d "c:\Program Files\QuickTime" "c:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime" As is lately the case with most of Apple’s software on either Windows or iOS, it had problems with bugs and disappearing features, simply so Apple can sell new stuff for more money. Hit the Start Menu, type cmd.exe and Right Click then choose Run as Administrator. Because at that time I couldn’t find a current 64-bit version 11.4 Windows installation file, I tried iTunes 12.x.So, before I ran iTunesSetup again, I needed to "lie" to the installed by making a directory link to where QuickTime actually got installed. Since both apps are 32-bit apps running on 64-bit Vista, they are each installed to "c:\program files (x86)." Apparently iTunes has hardcoded "c:\program files" so iTunesSetup goes looking for QuickTime in "c:\program files\quicktime" rather that where it really ended up. However, I hadn't put iTunes on my new Vista 64-bit system, and I was shocked to see the iTunes installer fail to install saying "cannot find Quicktime." A little file system sniffing solved the problem. We're going on a trip tomorrow so I needed to get my iPod setup quickly and sync'ed beforehand.
