If none of your codec packs support FLAC, K-Lite Codec Pack will. This has nothing to do with XYplorer by default.

I installed C:\Program Files (x86)\K-Lite Codec Pack but no change still got the garbage text with right clicking the icon from a .flac file...
Do I have to do something in the settings to make them work together ?

Configuration | Preview | Previewed Formats
Use the "Find..." button in the top right corner to search for: flac
Use it multiple times and tell us in which categories it is found and if the checkbox is checked in that category.
