OPTIONS

--Process all protected files in iTunes library
Most common method, it will fail if you have videos purchased through iTunes in the library in which case you will have to use the second method but is still worth a try in case you want to save some time and possibly get all the files done without having to do anything else

--Process just these files (drag files from explorer onto this list to add them):
This is a backup method that is even more effective because it goes after each file instead of just peeking at the iTunes library file. The only fault with this method is it requires you to drag each protected file from where ever it lies on your computer into the box below the message, you have to drag the files from Windows Explorer and not from iTunes. You can however right click on the file in iTunes and then click on "Show In Windows Explorer" to find the file quickly and painlessly.

--Decrypt protected files
This option is... Well... Kind of awkward to put in, I'll admit. It pretty much does what it says, decrypts the protected file(s) you told it to decrypt.

--Do decryption even if decrypted version already exists
Sometimes something can go wrong in some way, shape or form, like you deleted the file but not the spot in the iTunes library, so QTFU will try and process a file that has a missing decrypted file. This really isn't a big issue but can help need the reason arise. Yes, QTFU does actually go through the decryption process if this option is selected and not just copying the decrypted file, don't worry we're not tricking you.

--Automatically replace protected files with the new decrypted files in the iTunes library and all playlists
This will remove the entry in iTunes and add in the new unprotected file. You will some of the information that is iTunes specific, like date added, last played, play count, etc. The information that is specific to the song like song name, artist name, album name, genre, etc, should be added with the new file.

--Backup your current iTunes library index files before starting
This will backup the library / database file that iTunes uses to catalogue all the songs and media files so if something should go wrong like QTFU crash and drag the original iTunes library file with it (which shouldn't ever happen but it still possible) then you will have a replacement should things go wrong. It's not probable, but still there for those who are nervous or for any other reason you may come up with.

--After decryption, move original protected files to the backup folder
Below this you can specify a folder that you can move the original protected files in case you no longer want them mixed in with the rest of the iTunes files. This is another popular option that most people will do. This makes it easier for you to either delete the protected files or save them for a later point.

ERRORS

If after all this you received any errors, other than an error stating that the iTunes version is not supported, then look at any of the following error logs and see if you see any matches. Then use the remedy following it and if that doesn't work then please make a thread in the help forum again with what the error was, along with what you did, and what the second error was. We will again try and get back to you as soon as possible.

The file you told QTFU to convert isn't a protected music file and thus it can't be converted. Next time make sure you drag the right file file from Windows Explorer into the box of songs you want to convert.

Exception during debugging 

This error occurs whenever QTFU doesn't have the right cfg file for iTunes and must be updated. Just follow the 5 step process at the top of this file. If that doesn't work then a restart could do the trick.
Also, if you manually editted the cfg file then make sure it goes [Version1] then [Version2], [Version3], etc. Make sure that none of the sections skip a number, otherwise QTFU won't recognize the rest of the sections after that.

This is common and only one case has ever been reported where the solution didn't work. The user still got his/her final product but it was a rather strange incident. If you ever have this happen to you, click Start on the bottom left of the screen and then click on Run. Within the prompt, type in "itunes /regserver" without the quotes, and the com_error should disappear. It's the most common error out there so it's not bad if you ever see it.
