Please help! does iTunes normally install these files? (Windows 7 64 bit)

I just installed iTunes and noticed a folder called {93E26451-CD9A-43A5-A2FA-C42392EA4001} located in my ProgramData folder which I'm pretty sure wasn't there before. In it there is a folder called x64 which contains the following files:
DIFxAPI.dll,
DifXInstall64.exe,
DIFxInstallLog.txt
GEARAspiWDM.inf
gearaspiwdmx64.cat
There is also another folder within this folder with the same name (x64) which contains the following files
GEARAspi.dll
GEARAspi64.dll
GEARAspiWDM.sys
I googled the {93E26451-CD9A-43A5-A2FA-C42392EA4001} folder and some of the files within it and saw countless results related to viruses. Should I be worried? Or is this normally installed by iTunes?

Hi.
I googled the filenames you mentioned in your post, they seem to be part of a CD burning software called GEAR software. According to File.net, iTunes uses this software. Is there anything wrong with your computer, like high CPU useage?

  • I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011. Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011.
    Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

    Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
    After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.  The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard. 
    The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
    To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2 Insert the Mac OS X disc.  If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
    Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
    If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
    Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
    4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware  Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
    5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
    6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
      If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers 
    If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
    To repair Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Start up your computer in Windows.
    2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
    3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway. 
    If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
    Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

    I want to take this case to the police and need to have the program to do so. I realize that I can re-intsall the OS and take care of any spyware that way however, I would destroy any evidence that would be needed.

  • Please help? Itunes will not open with Windows 7.

    I have tried everything in the posts, etc and still can't get it to work. Any ideas? I'm not the most computer literate person so need pretty simple instructions.

    1. Right mouse click the iTunes icon and select 'Run as Administrator'
    Does it work now?
    2. If not, check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?
    If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
    MSCONFIG
    Hit ENTER
    Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
    Restart Windows.
    3. If that fails or you donot see ApsDaemon.exe file in task manager, refer to following article to remove SC files:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
    4.  If that fails, repair your Quicktime.  START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

  • Itunes wont install on my windows vista 32-bit

    Can anyone help me on this ? its driving me mad please?

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • There are probably hundreds of people asking this same question, but how do I get iTunes to install on my Windows 8 64-bit computer?

    I've tried re-installing, fixing the compatibility, running it as an administrator, and restarting my computer, among other things, and it just won't work! All I get is the, "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher", message. The installer says iTunes64Setup. Help?

    I see there's no answer.
    This issue has ****** me off for a long time, and I am fed the **** up with it.
    I DO NOT WANT TO DOWNLOAD the Movies and TV shows to every *^&%^$%# Apple device, ONLY the MUSIC!!!
    COme on Apple!!!  FIx this!!!

  • I've installed iTunes 10.2.1 but my computer doesn't recognise the hardware certificate and denies it, and the installation isn't complete. This results in my iPod being unrecognised. Please help me! My system is a Windows XP.

    I've installed iTunes 10.2.1 but my computer doesn't recognise the hardware certificate and denies it, and the installation isn't complete. This results in my iPod being unrecognised and so, it cant synchronize with iTunes. Please help me! My system is a Windows XP.

    Malware can cause digital signing issues, I would run a malware check with the free version of MalwareBytes:
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/
    After that, the is a Microsoft fixit for:
    The software you are installing  has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows   XP. (Tell me why this testing is important.)
    This software will not be  installed. Contact your system administrator.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798
    It might be worth trying it.

  • When updating iTunes to 11.4 I get the following error:  "Files Shared by these updates" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed. Running Windows 7 64-bit.

    When updating iTunes to 11.4 I get the following error:  "Files Shared by these updates" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed. Running Windows 7 64-bit.

    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.

  • Please help.  ITUNES has error 2093.  re-install ITUNES has error code 3.

    Hi,
    My daughter and son have TUNES libraries. Clicking on ANY of the 2 libraries gets an error -2093 and the comment to reinstall. I reinstall and this gets an error code of -3. I saw a thread where someone had NORTON ( I don't). I use Microsoft, CA, and Spyware Doctor. Never had a problem before, but you've heard that one. Please help Does anyone know how this can be fixed? Short of a hammer to the computer, I can/will do anything it needs, but I don't have a clue what to do. THANKS !!!!

    Do a QuickTime standalone install. That usually fixes the 2093 error.
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    Save it to your your hard drive - don't install over the internet.

  • Apple application support was not found apple application is required to run ituneshelper please un istall itunes then install itunes again erro 2

    I can't install itunes for windows 7 to 64bit i tried several times and at the end show up this...
    "apple application support was not found apple application is required to run ituneshelper please un istall itunes then install itunes again erro 2" ..so what it does mean? ..can somebody help me for this please? thanks

    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.
    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:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    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.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • When itunes is installed missing file -45075 appears, any suggestions

    When itunes is installed missing file -45075 appears, any suggestions

    Me too.
    I have looked at 2-3 other posts, and they still fail to resolve this.
    I have reinstalled iTunes; I have repaired every other Apple component and ......
    Same message every time. 
    I am running fully updated Windows 8 (not 8.1 yet though)
    Looking at the number of posts in this discussion group, it does appear to be something that Apple could take a more proactive lead on.  Either a more meaningful error message, or ideally a fully loaded iTunes installation.
    COME ON GUYS - help us out here.
    If it wasn't that I NEED iTunes to manage and backup my phone, I'd uninstall the %^$*&^ lot.   That said, my 4G upgrade to the iPhone 5S is now in serious doubt ... maybe a time for a complete change.

  • Please help me download and install Flash Player!

    One day, I had no problems viewing Flash on my computer. Then
    one day last week, it told me I needed to download Flash Player 8
    to view The Vine on E!Online. I haven't been able to download Flash
    Player 8 or 9. Or anything from this site, for that matter.
    I went here (
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoi d=BIOW),
    clicked download. Clicked the yellow strip that appeared to install
    the Active X control or whatever it's called. A pop-up asked if I
    wanted to install or do not install. I clicked install, then
    nothing happens. No download box shows up or anything.
    I've un-installed my flash player (if i even had one) and
    have tried so many times to download a new flash player.
    PLEASE HELP!

    ive uploaded the exe file to my server, so
    go
    here and save it to your comp, unzip the file, and run the
    program.

    Try removing the Genius database.  In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.
