Is there any way to play Flac files with Windows Media Player 12? A hefty percentage of my music library is FLAC.

Thanks!

Hello L Goldfine,

Thank you for your inquiry.

The Flac extension is not a supported file type of Windows Media Player. You may however user your favorite search engine to search for a solution that may convert the file to a Windows Media Player supported file type.

For more information on Windows Media Player supported file types you may also view the following link:

I hope this information is helpful.

Thank you,
