How to open JA file?

The main problem with Jet Archive is that the JA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file JA 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 JA 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 Trainz Simulator

The first step is to check if the computer has the Trainz Simulator program installed. To do this, enter the name Trainz Simulator 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 JA with Trainz Simulator. Below is a list of programs that support the file JA.

Programs to open JA file

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

Step 2. Create association of Trainz Simulator with JA files

If, despite the installed application, the JA file does not start in the Trainz Simulator application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the JA file with the Trainz Simulator application.

Step 3. Update Trainz Simulator to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Trainz Simulator program with the Jet Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The JA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the JA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the JA file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected JA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of JA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular JA file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted JA 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the JA file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the JA file again. However, some background programs may block the JA file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
