Don't know if there is a way without EVER installing it, but you could put it in a temp dir and then delete.

Might be a way to read it out of the compiled exe, but I don't know if on compile if the included files get re encoded or not.

Thy you for your answer. I'll do it like this.

But it takes a bit of time to install a 15 mb file (for me up to 10 secs),I dont want to know the time on slower pcs.

But I look forward to somebody knowing a way,who will tell me.

Does anybody know how the fileinstall files sit in the final exe? are they re-encoded with the final exe?

As far as playing directly? No. Installing to a temp folder and then erasing after is the best bet.

Size reduction options: Re-encode the .wav file, or use an MP3.

See SoundPlay() or the _Sound* in the #include <Sound.au3>
