From: Garrapata on 28 May 2010 23:56 This is a repost since there were no replies to an earlier one I hope I hadn't killfiled everyone who tried to reply Several incarnations ago (DOS/Win3.1) there was a simple free wav player called wplayany. When you clicked on a wav file it would play the file. It wouldn't open any windows or do anything except play the file then go away. Unfortunately it doesn't work with newer versions of windows. Is there something else that will behave exactly this way but work with more recent versions of windows. -- 09=IX

Look for vbwav.exe by Jose Falcao. The latest version seems to be 1.1.2.8 which I haven't tried. I am using an older version (0.5.0.4) which works fine for me on XP set as the default opener for .wav files.

The 1.1.1.4 version worked fine however on both XP and Windows 7 64bit in setting it as the default handler for .wav files. The big difference I see in v1.1.1.4 from v0.5.0.4 is that it creates a small .ini in its home directory. Since I have forgotten where the versions originally came from and most sites just link to the latest version I zipped them up and uploaded them to rapidshare. http://rapidshare.com/files/394235039/wavplayer_multiv.zip.html
