Re: Need help! Windows Media Player 11 (vista) cannot play WAV file Ok, found out the problem. Gee, I right click on all wav file and check the
properties. It turn out that WMP tries to use AC3Filter to play WAV file,
and I think AC3Filter is not working in Windows Vista. So, I removed it and
everything works fine now.
