QuickTime has been developed by Apple as a standard multimedia framework integrated by a set of libraries as well as the traditional and well-known QuickTime Player multimedia player. With this application it is possible to play and transmit content via streaming to the Internet and more compatible devices..
It is possible that when trying to install QuickTime in Windows 10 as a video player , it gives an error during the process, in some cases it is due to problems with the libraries and in others due to compatibility issues. At this point it is important to clarify that Apple no longer supports its version QuickTime 7 for Windows, this is because since 2009, new versions of Windows already have support for formats enabled by QuickTime 7 such as H.264 and AAC.
