[QUOTE="Cr00zng, post: 1842306, member: 318059"] Yes, iTunes is an Apple product and licensed to Microsoft, but that does not mean iTunes is the same as it had been previously. The user interface is pretty much the same, but how it runs on Windows 10 is different. Case in point... The iTunes, from the MS Store in Windows 10 is installed via an "exe" file, or through the "Settings\Apps & features" interface. The uninstall is only through the "Settings\Apps & features" interface, instead of the traditional Control Panel. Most of the "Apps & features" listed applications in Windows 10 64-bits run in sandbox, including iTunes from the Store. As such, the Apple drivers are not shared with other programs. That's an issue for iMazing on Windows and to correct this, the program requires Apple drivers. The support was kind enough to let me know, quote: [I]*-Presumably, there might be other differences with the MS drivers[/I] As such, the answer to my question earlier (blue vs. red pill) I had to take the red one to have iMazing working. Once iMazing reinstalled the "normal" drivers, it runs and so is iTunes without issues. IMazing is feature rich application, when compared to iTunes. Being able to export/import all of data from the device to various data format in itself worth for the licensing cost. Not to mention other features that might be worth for on their own. And yes, the backup/restore feature as well... if it works... :Smirk: I think I had enough with configuration changes on my system for awhile. I still need to document the issues encountered for my records and how to fix them. The chances are that couple month down the road, I won't recall... [/QUOTE]
