How to open 01 file?

The main problem with FIFA 2001 User is that the 01 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that 01 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 01 file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install FIFA 2001

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that FIFA 2001 is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name FIFA 2001 into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 01 files.

Programs to open 01 file

Remember to download programs supporting 01 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of FIFA 2001 with 01 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the 01 file to open in the FIFA 2001 application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the 01 file with the FIFA 2001 application.

Step 3. Update FIFA 2001 to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the FIFA 2001 program, it is possible that FIFA 2001 User requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Electronic Arts, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 01 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the 01 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 01 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected 01 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the 01 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 01 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Electronic Arts, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file 01 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the 01 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file 01 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 01 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
