What OS and which wma codec? If you got WMA9, you need to make sure you either have WMP9 installed, or the WMP9 system codecs installed. See here: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/codec-central-wma.htm . Also, did you reboot your computer after installing the codecs?

Can you decode other wma files?

Is the file protected? Was it purchased from an online music store?
