Why my code doesnt compile if weeks ago worked perfectly?

I have this simple school project that plays music selected through a menu with the 'PlaySound'command. 3 weeks ago it worked perfectly but now that I want to upgrade it it just won't compile. It says something like
" [Linker error] C:UserspcAppDataLocalTempccAaBZrG.o:Proyecto.cpp:(.text+0x32d): undefined reference to `PlaySoundA@12 "
This is basically what it does, it just repeats for different genres/bands:
(Yes, I do have the music files inside the same folder as the program)
int PLAY1() {
switch(CAN1) {
case 1:
system("cls");
printf("nNow playing: AKFG - Solanin (4:28)");
PlaySound(TEXT("AKFG.wav"), NULL, SND_FILENAME | SND_ASYNC);
system ("pause");
system("cls");
ROC();
break;

You have this tagged as C, but you're compiling as C++. Perhaps you compiled the code withPlaySoundas C, butProyecto.cppis looking for a C++ function?

If you've not changed the code since it worked three weeks ago, the problem is that something else changed — most probably the way that you compile the code, but possibly something was installed or uninstalled on the machine that is breaking the build process.

I believe that the code is actually compiling fine, from your output. The issue is with the linker. What ever library you were including that contains the definition for the function PlaySound is likely missing from your build/include step?
Are you sure you are using the exact build/link steps as you were previously?
