How to open GEA file?

The main problem with Fifa World Cup Game Data is that the GEA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file GEA to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GEA 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 World Cup

In this case, you should first verify that the FIFA World Cup application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name FIFA World Cup into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file GEA with FIFA World Cup. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open GEA files.

Programs to open GEA file

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

Step 2. Create association of FIFA World Cup with GEA files

If, despite the installed application, the GEA file does not start in the FIFA World Cup application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GEA file with the FIFA World Cup program.

Step 3. Update FIFA World Cup to the latest version

If, despite the association of the FIFA World Cup program with the Fifa World Cup Game Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. 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 GEA 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 GEA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GEA or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected GEA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GEA 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GEA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Electronic Arts, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GEA files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move GEA to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GEA to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GEA file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
