trying to update, but im missing the installation file ITUNES.MSI

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

I ran a search for the file, and entered that into the box, to no avail. Then I launched iTunes and clicked on 'check for updates', and was told I had the latest version 11.0.1 I think it is. So, any clue on what to do? Thanks for any and all help.

I locate the file in "Program Files\iTunes" and change the path. I then get this:

What folder will work ???

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".

"Alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi'"

Trying to upgrade my iTunes for my new IPod Touch(32GB). It needs a newer version than I have. When running the installer, it must remove the old iTunes first, I assume. This is what I receive:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below."
There is a dropdown box with 2 options:
C:\Documents and Settings\...\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\
and
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\Installer Cache\iTunes 9.2.0.61

You're already well on track, then. Launch CleanUp again and remove any iTunes entries this time. Quit CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install.

You're not alone. I'm having exactly the same problem. I am running Windows XP version 2002 and cannot uninstall Itunes or update. This problem is affecting my ability to sync music and also with playback. The support for PC users is severely lacking. I'm also getting error messages that says an older version of Bonjour cannot be uninstalled. Help!
