Play FLAC files in Windows Media Player

FLAC (Free Loseless Audio Codec) is a great a way to store music if you don't want to lose the quality of the original source. But unfortunately, Windows Media Player does not support the flac format. There are lot of players available, which can play flac music, like Winamp, VLC and the previously mentioned XMPlay. But many people still use the Windows Media Player (WMP) that comes bundled with the Microsoft Operating System. Here's what they should do, to get flac music played in their Windows Media Player.

• Download madFlac
• Unzip the package and run install.bat to install the codec.
• Open your .flac file in Windows Media Player .
• Click "Yes" on the dialog box that appears . Select the "Don't ask again for this extension" if you don't to see this dialog again.
• Now your flac music can be played in Windows Media Player without any problem.
