Need help converting FLAC to m4a on Windows 11! Any recommendations?
- Nov 25, 2024
Had the same issue with a ton of FLAC files that wouldn’t play on my Apple devices—so annoying. Found AudioKes on Windows 11, and honestly, it saved me. Batch converted everything to ALAC perfectly, no quality loss, and super simple to use.
I followed this guide:

Definitely worth a try!
Converting FLAC to M4A on Windows 11 using a Python script like flac2all does have some drawbacks, especially if you're not super tech-savvy or prefer a more user-friendly approach. You gotta install Python if you haven’t already. That’s just one extra step that can be annoying if you're not used to dealing with programming stuff. It can be a hassle to set up everything correctly if you’re not familiar with command-line tools.
Using command-line tools can feel intimidating. If you mess up the command or don’t type the filename correctly, well, you might just sit there scratching your head wondering why it’s not working. It's not as straightforward as dragging and dropping files in a GUI (Graphical User Interface).
While flac2all is great for batch conversions, if you have a ton of files and something goes wrong with one of them, you might have to go through them one by one to fix the issue, which can be a real pain in the neck.
