Here at Orland Media we make full use of iTunes on Vista, having it either on random play or tuning into to any of several hundred radio stations throughout the world while working.
The above mentioned problem can sometimes occur on upgrading iTunes, and it doesn’t go away even on a reboot. The simple cure for it is to make a new shortcut pointing to the iTunes executable file, and dispose of the old shortcut.

Right click it – choose Create Shortcut. The shortcut is created in the same folder. Now drag it to wherever you like (for example onto your Start Menu or Desktop).

Hi. On Windows go to:
C:\Program Files\iTunes
…where you will find the iTunes.exe file.
Right click it – choose Create Shortcut. The shortcut is created in the same folder. Now drag it to wherever you like (for example onto your Start Menu or Desktop).
