never come across a .act file in the context of audio before.

but first, if it says it records as .mp3 files, you could try renaming it to name.mp3 and see if it works

Next tip: Don't use a stinking programme like Windoze Media Player, or if you must, at least put a stop to it phoning home to Uncle Bill first

It's an ADPCM Compressed File Recorded by Some MP3 Players/Voice Recorders.

If you look here you can see the file type is supported by Konverter. You can download a free trila version of Konverter here.

There's also a free utility you can use to convert ACT to WAV. The download link is at the bottom of this webpage.
