I tunes doesnt work since new update. shows in processes but no window displays.

Question

Running windows 7 premium(it is a legit copy). it seems to me that every itunes update that i do,seems to make itunes NOT work on my computer. the only way for me to get it to work is to litterally reboot windows 7 on to my computer....ive dont this 4 times in the last 6 to 12 months. have to reset my computer completly just to get one file to work. im not doing that this time. i know its not my computer cuz everything runs perfect on my cpu but itunes. i dont care what update it is, this has always been my issue for as long as i can remember . i will click to run as administrator, i tried to netsh ....blah blah reset. i update my computer to all the new updates. i downloaded quicktime i did everything i can find on this support page as possible. im just getting tired of this. my computer will show as if its opening itunes and nothing comes up. ill sart task manager go to process and it shows as if itunes is running. but no window will show. to make things even more frustrating maybe 1 out 10 tries..literally 1 in 10 trys itunes will appear....after i have given up and just do my own thing itunes appears after an hour or so but just freezes. ... any one else having trouble like this or has solved this problem?
im tired of spending 2 hours to reboot my system and have to get my computer reset and another 2 hours to update and put all my files back on and even if i get itunes t owork i hate sitting here for another hour putting all my music in ths system and another hour for it to be uploaded to my ipod.....
itunes do your self a favor have your people that work on all itune updates, all so fine tune the windows version update!

Answer 1

i think i figured it out.. these are the steps i took to getting itunes to work.
1. uninstall all things apple and itune related items off the computer
      http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 (use this file to find all items needing to be deleted and erased from      recycling bin.) (also make sure you do this just as you turn your computer on this way you wont have to worry about exe. files that may not be allowed to delete.)
2. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363 (take these step and instead of deleting just one delete all the files you want no trace of itunes or apple on computer this includes quicktime)
3.(this step may not be necessary but defrag and disk clean up "C:/" defrager and disk clean up, when using disk cleanup clean all files so check everything off.
4. Now restart your computer once all files have been cleared and recycle bin has been empty.
5. before downloading any itunes go to E internet explore not mozilla or any other internet service just use E. go to tools. advance tabs scroll down this list to security. uncheck the box that says (check for server certificate revocation*)
6.check to make sure in this same location that (use ssl 3.0) and (use tls 1.0) ARE checked.
7. Mozilla fire fox maybe a better internet service than E its self. so if your using mozilla sorry dont. download itunes from E and do not save just run. install like necessary. when installing i turned off allow automated updates..  let it install.
Try it it out now. i hope this worked for you as it did for me!!!
2 day and some many hours trolling and looking for answered even called apple services for help and rthey kept sending me the same files ive read thousands of times.. so this like i said this is what i did mixing everything ive read together and it worked.
