Need a new batch MP3 to WMA converter, suggestions?

Hi, just installed Windows 10 and attempted to run the old Microsoft Audio Converter from XP's plus pack, remember that? :slight_smile:
It errors out saying the newest version of WMP is not installed. I haven't dug into it too far yet to troubleshoot but:

Do folks have any audio converter favorites to recommend that can do batch conversions of MP3 to WMA VBR, preferably freeware and one that can preserve directory structure mirroring the source into the destination. Much thanks!
