Hi nyyankee53
You can check if the antivirus or other security software raises questions. I would say to you temporarily disable the security software installed and check if the problem is resolved.If you disable any security software for troubleshooting temporarily, so don't forget to activate after troubleshooting is completed that your computer will be at risk.
See the help link - below

Repair Apple Software Update since the programs & features Panel configuration and then try again.
For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.
Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.
The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.
Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

This has been going on for about a week or two now, and I really need help.Any ideas or help would be appreciated.Thank youHi once again, fortunately today I bring better news! As a result of a serious lack of assistance from Apple themselves, have no idea of "The Tech Guys" in the world PC and extremely unnecessary hours at Microsoft, I've sorted it me. In other words, the main problem with mine was the Apple Software Updater. Even with "Revo" I was unable to remove it. I decided to download "Windows Installer Clean Up" from there where I could find (it was also free!). I used it and immediately found, I could choose the Apple Software Updater and remove it with very little hassle in all. I proceed to download the new iTunes, and I'm a very happy Bunny! Thanks for nothing, Microsoft and Apple! Hope this helps - Dan

I worked on it for about 3 days now. It's driving me crazy. I tried everything I could find to try to solve this problem.
When installing iTunes it stops and a box will then appear to me said "there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support provider or package. "No error message or anything, that's all I get. When I hit the only button I can hit the OK button, it continues to install QuickTime. Sometimes, it will install the iTunes file and the shortcut, but the shortcut does never work and the iTunes file is always empty. I have download the installer directly from Apple.com and save to the desktop, a new copy after each test (just in case).
Here is a list of what I've tried:
- Apple Support page: difficulties to install iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
- Apple Support page: removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other components of software for Windows Vista or Windows 7
- Apple Support page: iTunes and QuickTime for Windows cannot be installed without Visual Basic Script (VBScript)
- 1,5 hour long session with Apple Support Tech, where we repeat the two steps albums created a new admin account and then tried to install on this account of troubleshooting. After it is has not told me while they could not fix the problem it was a questions and contact Microsoft Windows.

Yes, I am the administrator of the computer with admin abilities, yes I checked run this program as an administrator. I also made sure to stop all this as possible could interfere with the instillation, including my anti virus and what not even before I tried a clean boot.
Is there anything else I can try?

A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your provider to support personal or package. "
Could someone help me out here.
Thank youHello CBhaskar,
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.
If the information of Gokul has not helped to solve your problem, then I suggest that you use the Windows Installer Cleanup tool.
There may be a corrupt installation, you need to delete everything first.
Click here for a link to download the utility from Microsoft.You can use the utility to remove installation information for programs that were installed by using Windows Installer. Remember that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility does not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall on.
If please reply back and let us know if this helps solve your problem or if you still need help.
