    DEP error "itunes has stopped working"

    This is no fun. DEP "must be turned on for itunes to run" so it cannot be turned off (not an option). I have uninstalled and reinstalled at least 4 times, itunes and quicktime. I am almost ready to reinstall the O/S. Wish I could downgrade to XP, no problems on my XP machine. I saw a previous post but never saw the resolve to the problem. Any definite answer will be greatly appreciated!

    Sorry to report that I did turn off Windows Defender and the computer would not allow me to turn off DEP for itunes. Itunes still not working.

    Try installing the software in Compatibility Mode and also by running the setup file as an Administrator...

    Same problem on my cuputer been solved by repairing the QuickTime. Uninstall the QuickTime, click Repair. After it is done, iTunes runs again. Hope it helps.
