Step 2. Create association of FIFA World Cup with POA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the POA file still does not use the FIFA World Cup program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here.

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.

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to POA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the POA file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected POA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of POA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular POA file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Electronic Arts, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted POA files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the POA file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
