To convert MP3 to WAV format free on a Windows computer, you can use various free software options. I'd like to recommend V1C. That is a free, open-source media player that also offers conversion features.

Steps to convert MP3 to WAV:

  1. Download and install V1C Media Player if you haven't already.
  2. Open V1C.
  3. Click on Media > Convert / Save.
  4. In the Open Media window, click Add and select your MP3 file.
  5. Click Convert / Save.
  6. In the Convert window, choose the Profile as Audio - CD or create a new profile with WAV format:
  7. Click on the Create a new profile icon (next to Profile dropdown).
  8. Name it, select WAV as the encapsulation, and set the codec to PCM.
  9. Choose the destination file location and name with a .wav extension.
  10. Click Start to begin conversion.
