Easy enough?

Lazy answer.
@mercman1969
You might be able to use CD burning software that will accept FLAC files directly.
If not, then first decode them into wav files using FLAC frontend.
Download the package "FLAC for Windows with installer" from here:-http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html
(The installation file is flac-1.2.1b.exe )Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.0 -
Download Burrrn (three R's, I think...) - takes flac files as input and writes directly.0

Have downloaded the flack frontend. To decode the files is it simply a case of add file then select decode?0 -
Hi
I think the sequence is:-
'Open files' then highlight them, then 'Decode'.Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.0 -
CDBurnerXP will burn a CD direct from flac, as will Ashampoo Burning Studio 2010. Both free.0

This is the very easy, free and reliable method that I always use:

I'm afraid I found FLAC Frontend to be less than useless. Burrrn is intuitive, easy to use, and works.0 -

What's wrong with you? You seem to be the board troll.
My answer was a valid one. The first hit on Google when you search for the exact phrase the OP used as thread title shows how to do it. There are also other solutions on the first page of the Google search. I never post these lmgtfy links without checking first whether it helps the OP.
I'm just tired of posts where people ask a very simple question without even making the effort to type in the question into Google. If they then run into problems I'm very happy to help as other forum members can confirm.
If I look through your posts you seem to come here from time to time to troll. What's your contribution to the OP's question and to this board in general? Now go back to the boards where you might be more helpful and please, put me on your ignore list.
Have a nice day
EOT for me0
