How to fix iTunes Error 3194 on Windows 10/8/7 (Tutorial | 2021)

This is a tutorial in which I show you, how to fix iTunes Error 3194 on Windows! (still works in 2021)
*📁 lines to paste into the hosts file (first one worked fine in my case):
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
#127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
----
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
#127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
---
*❗ If you want to restore to a signed .ipsw not downloaded from iTunes you might also need to downgrade your iTunes to version 11. If you want to restore or update to an ipsw file which was directly downloaded by iTunes you'll have to remove the named lines in your hosts file.
But, you know, we're still talking about iTunes, so if I was you, I would try it anyway :D
❗ If this video didn't solve your problem, you should check if there's anything blocking the iTunes connection or the ports in your router.
Often wrongdoers are: communication programs like Skype, children security software or two anti virus softwares overlapping !
I hope I was able to help you!

Whenever I save the hosts files, it makes me saves as a hosts.txt file can you help?

[@ibungler]

Did you open the file as an administrator? If yes: check out your anti virus software, often they’re blocking changes in the hosts file

[@Interstellarize]

[@v4r__]

Gibt es eigentlich noch mehrer Methoden wie man den Fehler weg bekommt? Weil ich hab’s nicht geschafft

[@ibungler]

Ist halt in der Regel ein Internetproblem, aber Du kennst ja iTunes... 😂 am einfachsten wärs, einfach einen anderen PC zu verwenden. Was hast du denn vor?

[@endzi3286]

I can't save it cause it says that I don't have a permission to do it. I can't even run it in admin mode cause I don't have that option. What I gotta do?

[@katenicoleflores1387]

same question

[@Turbs94945]

Copy and paste the hosts file to somewhere else, then edit that one with the stuff, and then paste it into where the original hosts file is and replace it (If it asks for admin access say yes)

[@teishryantemporary9291]

not work in windows 11

[@louiseusi2008]

Try this method
- Reset your Network Wifi
- Reinstall Lates Itunes

[@teishryantemporary9291]
