... applications extracted from ZIP files, you could try official Audacity https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/audacity-win-2.1.3.zip . in fact ffmpeg did open G.729A wrapped in a WAV but the output of its conversion was corrupted. That isn't exactly what you said the first time. You said "unable ...

... now. Do you see a PM button under Steve's name? Thanks Gale. But as per my previous post you don't have standard G.729 files and I somewhat doubt FFmpeg will open G.729 wrapped in WAV. Well, in fact ffmpeg did open G.729A wrapped in a WAV but the output of it's conversion was corrupted. So maybe ...

... in my case (as you can see on my 1st post Audacity log) it simply won't open. Can you actually hear people talking in a foreign language? Because ffmpeg would error out on this file but still would output a converted file that had noone talking in a perceivable language. I can't test on Windows ...
