The last Apple itunes update from 1/24/14 was unsuccessful and I now receive an error message stating that a program MSVCR80 file is missing.  What does that mean?

On January 24, 2014 I received a prompt on my Sony Vaio laptop that there was an iTunes program update ready.  I allowed my computer to install it, I received an error message stating it could wasn't completed.  Since then I can't access my iTunes and continuously receive an error message stating that a file MSVCR80 is missing.  A second message pop-up box states that I need to reinstall iTunes.  My question is if I remove the program how do I locate my file to reinstall it and am I going to lose any of my music?

Try the following user tip:
Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates
Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content. (That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times in case of disasters of any sort.)
