You need the FFmpeg extension for Audacity to import/export OPUS audio files - Download

  1. Install ffmpeg-win-#.#.#.exe -> Follow the installation instructions
  2. Open Audacity -> Edit -> Preferences -> Libraries

Be sure to export the OPUS file in either mono or stereo depending on the format of the original file.

Sometimes, Audacity will automatically find avformat-55.dll

If the exe version does not work, download the zip option and extract it into a new folder called ffmpeg-win-#.#.# (depending on the version number) and extract all its contents in there. Then attempt to locate FFmpeg.
