    Re: Sound Recorder is not saving in WAV file format in Vista

    Vista's Soundrecorder defaults to saving in .wma format, except in Europe (N
    edition).
    You can save in .wav format by starting the program with a parameter...

    soundrecorder /file outputfile.wav
    You can put this line in a shortcut.

    Also, the XP sndrec32.exe will work if you copy it over.

    Or, you can download a free program, like Audacity
    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
    which is also an editor.
