I'm unable to install iTunes 12 or even iCloud. Everytime I do I get the same **** error "Service 'Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verfiy that you have sufficent privileges to start system services."

Apple does it again, with another one of your annoying updates. Everything was working just fine with iTunes 11.4. But I was forced to upgrade to iTunes 12, following which iTunes wouldn't detect my iPhone (iPhone 5S 64GB). So I uninstalled iTunes, and have been trying to do a clean reinstall. I've tried everything suggested on the Apple Community but neither iTunes NOR iCloud install giving me the same ****** error every time (image attached). I even tried to skip this step, but Apple for some god forsaken reason cannot run without Bonjour, and the install process rolls back when I click 'Ignore'. Please help!

Try a more recent version of my advice. The "for older video cards version" may work when the default version doesn't.
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 the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
