PlaySound Gives Windows Error Sound ,Not Sound I Need

I Wanted To Make A Simple Piano Using C++. I Will Check If User Pressed A Key On Keyboard And Play The Piano Sound. Key Sounds Are Downloaded On Desktop And They Are .mp3 Files. So Just For Test I Wrote This Code :

#include "MyTestCodes.h"
//MyTestCodes.h Includes
/*
#include <iostream> //Input/Output Stream For Console
#include <string>   //For String
#include <fstream>  //File Stream 
#include <vector>   //Changable Index Structure
#include <Windows.h>//For System Commands
#include <algorithm>//Easy Sorting For Arrays/Vectors ...
#include <iomanip>  //For Outputting With Given Precision
#include <cmath>    //Easy Math Functions
#include <stdio.h>  //Standard Input/Output For Given Types
#include <conio.h>  //For Getting Key Presses
#include <ctime>    //For Getting Real Time
#include <filesystem>
#include <mmsystem.h>
#include <Mmsystem.h>
#include <mciapi.h>
*/

using namespace std;

#pragma comment(lib, "Winmm.lib")

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    PlaySound("C:/Users/niko/Desktop/key01 F.mp3", NULL, SND_FILENAME);
    // Tried With "\\" Too 
}

I Also Tried Without MyTestCodes.h And Include Other Libraries And Header Files By Myself (I Wrote MyTestCodes.h By Myself Too). I Mostly Included Those :


#include <Windows.h>
#include <mmsystem.h> 
#include <Mmsystem.h>
#include <mciapi.h>

I'm not sure exactly what is the problem, but here is an idea: try converting mp3 to wav

For some reason WinMM doesn't like .mp3 files, and only accepts .wav

I hope this solves it
