AUP isn't a sound file. It's a Project management text file.

To get a sound file, you need to Export one.

Select five or six seconds of simple sound and then noise by itself. File > Export > FLAC files. Attach that to your posting.

We really need to straighten out your software before we go any further or we're just going to make it worse. What version Audacity are you using? I don't know where it is in Windows. Help > About Audacity? Audacity > About?

On Windows you will find that information in "Help menu > About Audacity".

If the version is earlier than 1.3.13 I would highly recommend that you upgrade.
Audacity 1.3.13 is the latest (and best) version and is available here: http://audacityteam.org/download/

Exporting as a Flac file is possible in Audacity 1.2.6, but a bit complicated to do, so it will be a lot easier if we know that you're using the latest (1.3.13) version of Audacity.

Sorry James but you're asking for miracles.
There is just about every type of noise in that audio sample including broad-band noise, intermittent clunking, and multiple background voices.
A small amount of noise reduction is possible, but not enough to make the main voices clear.
