Media keys won't work with iTunes after spotify starts automatically

1

I have Spotify set to start with Windows, but not iTunes. Right now I would like to use the media keys with iTunes. I closed Spotify and restarted iTunes, but the keys still don't do anything.

Apart from changing the startup programs and/or restarting my computer, is there anything I can do to get the media keys to control iTunes?

Did you close the Spotify window or quit the program? – Christopher Chipps – 2012-11-12T22:57:10.040

@ChristopherChipps, Exited the program and stopped any related processes. – mowwwalker – 2012-11-12T23:00:29.873

I ended the itype.exe process with task manager and the media keys are working with iTunes again!
