I had iTunes installed on my work laptop and a bunch of my music on there. I moved the music to an external at my house and deleted all the folders and uninstalled it.

I am trying to install itunes 7 but keep getting a “The folder ‘iTunes’ can not be found or created and is required for iTunes” and it refuses to start.

I have deleted all iTunes settings and folders so its a clean install.

I found on google that you need to set your My Music in the registry to the default location. I look at the key adn the path is blank. Anytime I change it and reboot, it goes back to blank.

Google search “Windows Installer Clean Up Utility”

its a microsoft download. Install it, and you run it from Start Menu -\> Programs

Check if your existing ITunes is still listed as being installed. Use the utility to “clean” it so that you can reinstall.

that never was an issue for me. i installed the 64 bit edition on my laptop and it worked great. pretty fast once it runs all its background crap like album artwork and gapless playback shit.
