Hi JenPea78,
Thank you for replying.
Let’s browse to the location c:\windows\winsxs folder and rename the folder winsxs to winsxs.old.
Then try installing the security update and check if it helps.
Hope the information helps. Please post back and let us know.

Hi JenPea78 ,
As I find you need to install the security update’ Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update’ before installing iTunes on your computer.
Let’s follow these steps before you proceed with the installation of ITunes.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update
a)Open Programs and Features by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Programs, and then clicking Programs and Features.
b)Select the program, and then click Uninstall.

Also, download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility to remove all iTunes software:
Description of the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility
Now run the utility ("Start > All programs > Windows Install Cleanup"). In the list of programs that appear in Cleanup, select any iTunes entries, and click remove. Quit out of Cleanup.
4.Reinstall all iTunes software and check if it works.

I am having these same issues. I really do not understand why Apple cannot fix the installation program to take care of this. It seems like if Apple wants people to use Itunes they would not make it so hard to use. I think I will find a solution with another program.

Does that option get you over the line?
This post is so old and relates to Vista you might even get a more up to date response by starting a fresh question in the Windows 8 or 10 Forum.
Hi, I have a DELL Inspiron laptop about like 3 year old with windows 7 installed in it, I got windows 10 prompt to upgrade to which I did and everything was working absolutely fine. My Laptop was quite slow so I decided to Format it, took back up and formatted my windows and now there is no option for me to turn back to Windows 7 if I wish to as I formatted on windows 10 which is ok for me, but the problem here lies is that am trying to install ITunes and google Chrome which is not getting installed. While am downloading iTunes it gets download and then ready to install in my laptop, after all files are copied it gives me an error message which is "An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32".version="8.0.50727.6195",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b".processorArchitecture="amd64"'.Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80073715"
Please advise what is to be done here ??
Also for Google chrome when am initiating the download its simply keep downloading for like ages and never ends.
