The .GME file format is an archive created by the popular DexDrive accessory for the PlayStation and other gaming consoles. This device was used to store game data from one console to another. It allowed a user to save game progress and settings from one console to another. The .GME file was typically used as a compressed container for various gaming saves, including PlayStation or PlayStation 2 memory cards. Some other hardware peripherals that used the .GME file extension were the Game Boy Advance games’ e-Reader cards and Nintendo’s flash memory cards.
Technical Details
The GME file is a GZIP-compressed archive that can contain several files in a number of different gaming formats. This includes saved games, game configuration settings, game values and so on. It is very similar to other game save container formats such as .DPS, .MIX, .MCR, or VGS which are used in different types of games and consoles.
That being said, the GME format provides a secure way to transfer gaming data between two consoles, with the ability to quickly save the entire game progress to a single compressed file. Additionally, it is supported by many third-party applications that can read and write this archive type. It can also be opened on devices such as PCs or Macs using compression utilities such as 7-zip.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .GME) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .GME extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .GME file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .GME extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .GME extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .GME file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .GME file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .GME file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .GME file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .GME file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
