I am receiving this message when trying to open a standard .wav file.

Error: This file is not supported by libsndfile. Code: 64. Error in WAV/W64/RF64 file. Malformed 'fmt ' chunk.

What do I need to do to fix this issue ASAP?

If you know the parameters of the file (bit depth, sample rate, number of channels, etc), then open it as a RAW file with those parameters. If it plays fine then, all you have to do is resave it. There's more information about this here - scroll down the page.

Thank you for the information and sorry I posted twice. I realized the other post I made on the existing issue wasn't the same thing, that is the reason I made this one.
