With the advent of the new education-focused Windows 10 S, developers are being encouraged to flock to the Windows Store to make their apps accessible there.


The arrival of iTunes also ensures the software's compatibility with Windows 10 S mode, a more secure version meant for schools and other establishments that runs apps downloaded only from the Windows Store. Notably, the app will only run on Windows 10 PCs with either x86 or 圆4 architectures. The iTunes app on the Microsoft Store is similar to the regular iTunes, but now installation updates will be handled through the Microsoft Store updater rather than through Apple. While some Windows users were highly anticipating the debut of iTunes, Apple in December 2017 said that iTunes will not be available in the Microsoft Store that year. Microsoft, at its Build conference held last year, had announced plans to add iTunes to the Microsoft Store. Installing Bonjour from a slightly earlier build could fix that.Apple has finally released the iTunes app on the Microsoft Store, formerly the Windows Store app store. You can try the method given at Install missing components to install all of the other components, which might work although likely leaves AirPlay and Home Sharing broken. I've seen a couple of posts recently where installation was failing during the install of Bonjour. Your library and device backups should be unaffected by these steps but there are links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed. Links to the most recent builds are now at the bottom of the page. The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, or want to revert to an older version if the current one won't work properly for you at the moment. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.

It may also help to temporarily disable any non-Microsoft anti-virus. When reinstalling right click on the downloaded setup file and use run as administrator. The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
