Windows 10: Apple iTunes video stuttering in Windows 10 finally a solution

I've had movie stuttering only in Apple iTunes for several months with no solution. I have read on some forums that some people are blaming Windows 10.


This is not an issue with Windows 10 at all. It is an issue with iTunes that Apple has failed to fix. To prove this I fresh installed Windows 10 Pro on my PC. I installed only the latest NVIDIA driver. Nothing else was installed. I then downloaded the latest iTunes from the Microsoft store. Watched a movie and there was stutter. The movie stutters when streamed or downloaded.


OK so the culprit is iTunes. How to fix it?


I removed (uninstalled) iTunes and installed this older version: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1816?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

NOTE: You need to delete the iTunes library.itl file before you downgrade in this manner


Now the issue is resolved. No more stuttering.
