Hi everyone, I hope you can help me or offer any comments; it would be a great help:  
This has been happening for about a month now. Out of nowhere, while I’m studying my cards, the intervals change to one day on all of them. Even though I’ve tried restoring the backup or modifying the interval settings, nothing changes, and it stays at one day on all the cards.  
I’ve been using the same interval settings for months, without changing anything, and this only started happening a month ago. It’s also the same settings for all my decks and subdecks. Even after syncing with AnkiWeb, the settings aren’t fixed. The same thing happens when I use AnkiDroid; it resets to one day on all the cards.  
Yesterday, I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version on my laptop. But today, the same thing happened again. I’ve deleted almost all my add-ons. I don’t know what to do anymore. I try to change the interval settings when this happens, but nothing changes, even though the new settings are saved.

Thanks…

You don’t say what your learning/relearning steps are – but this is pretty normal behavior if you have longer steps and you’re studying close to your next-day-starts time. [Deck Options - Anki Manual](https://docs.ankiweb.net/deck-options.html#day-boundaries)
