Rinseout · 5 Nov 2009 at 00:06

hi all, ive recently had to reinstall windows on my machine and im missing something.

before i could convert audio formats from .wav to .mp3 etc etc with-in windows, i think it was called windows media converter or something.

i used to be able to simply right click on something and convert easily. im not sure how it got there before lol

does anyone know what it is im missing or of a update that i can install to get it back?

kind regards

What about this?

Convert MP3 WMA OGG WAV from one format to another by simply right-clicking audio files, adjust volume level and preserve ID Tags. Lame encoders are supported with command line switches. Group of files and folder conversion are supported.

If you don't particularly need the right click functionality then Audacity will convert a whole range of audio formats.
