Error after install iTunes setup: Apple application Support was not found

Hello,
I am trying to install iTunes on my pc. During the downloading of iTunes setup.exe i get this error:
Something went wrong during the installation of this item. Microsoft. VC80.CRT, type="win32", version="8.0.5072.7.6195", publicKeyToken="lfrc8b3b9a1e18e3b",process or Architecture=x86"
I choose 'ok' and the download continues. When the download is complete and i try to open the iTunes setup its given the error saying:
Apple Application Support was not found
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunesHelper. Please uninstall iTunes then install iTunes again.
I tried this more than once, but its not working. I also tried to extract the iTunes setup.exe with winrar and then to do an install with appleapplicationsupport.msi, but its given the same error.
Anyone please has some advice?
Thanks in advance!
Marieke

When I look at my control panel the only program that shows is "I Tunes".  No other supporting programs are showing up in the control panel nor the Common Files nor in the Program Files (x86).
That's an extreme case of this.
We'll try doing standalone installations of all the supporting programs.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install.
Doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone Apple Software Update install.
Doubleclick the Bonjour.msi (or Bonjour64.msi) to do a standalone Bonjour install.
Do those four installs go through okay? If so, does your iTunes launch without any errors now?

    1. Save iTunes install file to your desktop.
    2. Disconnect from internet.
    3. Disable Firewall/Security software.
    4. Run install. Note that it installs Application Support and a bunch of other software this time.
    5. Run iTunes.
    6. Enable Firewall/Security software.
    7. Reconnect to internet.
    8. Download Watchmen Director's Cut post haste.
    OR!

    1. Download and install WinRAR.
    2. Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe icon and choose "Open with WinRAR".
    3. Once the EXE is opened in WinRAR, double-click AppleApplicationSupport.msi and when the installer window is open choose "Repair".
    4. Done! You can now run iTunes normally.

    I am having tremendous difficulty installing I Tunes onto my new Dell XPS (Windows 8). First it downloaded but my library wasn't there and it would not recognize my ipod.
    Then I uninstalled it and now it won't reinstall saying:
    Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple applicationSupport is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2 (Windows error 2)
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times.......not working.

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    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. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

    A few days ago i got on iTunes but this error message came up saying
    Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall
    iTunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2 (Windows error 2)
    I have looked at many discussions and forum posts and most of them say to extract the itunes setup with winrar
    but i cannot see where it says to extract all i see is add to and compress.
    Please help me!!! I run windows 7 on an Acer laptop if this means anything. It would be highly appreciated thank you!

    So when I plugged in my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4), iTunes told me it needed to update to the newest version... so I did. After installing it it gave me an error (-45019) that said that a required component wasn't installed. I looked it up and people were saying to unistall iTunes and all apple related software and reinstall itunes which i did. I am on Windows 8.1.
    Now it gives me this error. "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please unistall iTunes and install iTunes again. Error 2 (Windows Error 2)." I did this and it gave me the same message... Please help! How do i get iTunes running again?

    If you run into the "another installation" message even after the reboot of the PC (which is an excellent idea by HTP ProXy), reregistering your Windows Installer Service is worth a try.
    First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Restart the PC and try another reinstalll.

    I am trying to install itunes on my pc again but keep getting an error that says'apple application support was not found. try reinstalling itunes.' error 2.
    We have had itunes on this pc for 2 years and recently it wouldn't open and another error message kept popping up saying it couldn't open because MSVCR80.dll was missing. I have unistalled the apple programs and tried reinstalling several times but to no avail. Hopefully my music library is not gone. Any Ideas out there?

    Start with the section Install missing components which should address your particular error. Otherwise 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.

    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
