What’s The Latest Version Of iTunes For Windows 10/11?
Apple’s iTunes software can not only back up data from your iOS devices to computers, but it can also do much more than that. iTunes can help you stream songs from Apple Music, upload music to iCloud, convert audio from one format to another, rip music CDs/DVDs, share music over the home network, burn digital music to CDs/DVDs, and of course, update your iOS device to the latest version.
While there are alternatives around for iTunes, most Apple device users prefer using iTunes over third-party software.
Apple regularly updates iTunes. If you have installed it on your PC, you might want to know what’s the latest version of iTunes out there for Windows 10 and how to update iTunes to the latest version on your Windows 10/11 PC.

How to update iTunes to the latest version?
If iTunes installed from the Store
If you have installed iTunes from Windows 10/11 Store, you don’t need to manually check for updates as the Store app will automatically update iTunes to the latest available version when an update is available. However, if you have turned off automatic app updates, you need to manually check for app updates by doing this:
Step 1: Open the Store app. Click on the three vertical dots icon (…) and then click the Downloads and updates option.
Step 2: On the Downloads and updates page, click the Get updates button to check for updates and install available updates.
If iTunes installed from outside the Store
If you have installed iTunes from outside the Store, you can manually update iTunes to the latest version. Note that the Apple Software Update utility, which is silently installed along with iTunes, automatically checks and prompts you to update iTunes. But you can manually check if you have disabled Apple Software Update or if it’s not updating automatically. Here is how to do that.
Step 1: Run iTunes.
Step 2: Click the Help menu and then click the Check for updates option to check if there is an update for iTunes. If available, you will get the following dialog with the Download iTunes button. Click the Download iTunes button to open the Apple Software Update dialog.
Step 3: Here, make sure that iTunes is selected, and then click the Install items button to download and install the latest version of iTunes.

Can ITunes be run in Dark Mode in Windows 11? I have seen some posts mentioning it is possible.
If you don’t want to (like me) or can’t download from the MS Store, look here: support.apple.com/en-us/HT210384 and you can find a download for Win 10.
woow! i lke this
This info is a couple months old and out of date. On Nov 13, 2020 I’m running Windows 10 and it says the current version is Version 12.10.10.2 “What is the latest version of iTunes for Windows 10?
The latest version of iTunes (installed from Apple or outside Windows Store) is 12.9.3 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) whereas the latest version of iTunes available on Windows Store is 12093.3.37141.0.”
I’ve tried every suggestion and followed each step of the tips, but all clicks seem to lead to the Microsoft app store window opening up. I just will not create a Microsoft account! Any other way to download iTunes onto my windows 10 pc? Many thanks.
