This may cause for one reason the Visual Basic Script (VBScript) is not installed on your computer which is needed to run your iTunes and QuickTime. Or the VBScript is disabled. So ensure that the VBScript is installed, if not then you can find here the link of VBScript for windows XP : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/security-updates/SecurityBulletins/2010/ms10-022. Or turn on your VBScript by turn off blocking in anti-virus and personal firewall soft. Register VBScript then QuickTime.

To register VBScript click start button and then click run and give this code: regsvr32 vbscript.dll.

For further more information visit to apple site.

Thank you.
