The file itunes library .itl can not be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. What to do now?

i downloaded and installed itunes on my windows laptop. When I try to open itunes a window pops up. The file itunes library.itl can not be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. Well that is good to know, but what is not mentioned is who to fix the issue.

See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash - Apple Community. You may need to install the most recent version of iTunes, or explicitly choose the correct library, or restore an older backup of your database.
