An issue with the new launcher: concurrent downloads

Anki Help
1

So I recently updated my anki and had to download stuff through the launcher. The problem is my internet and the launcher itself, because it downloads all the files at once (all the files sloooowly climb KBs over minutes) instead of downloading them one at a time so if my internet fails (happens every half hour) I wouldn’t have to redownload these gigantic 70mb :slight_smile: files again

A solution I’ve thought of for myself is to just download the dependencies using an internet download manager and pasting it in the appropriate locations. But what exactly do i need and where do i paste these things? What I need is:

pyqt6-qt6
pyqt6-webengine-qt6

These 2 won’t download on my internet. Thank you for reading so far and I would love to receive help for my issue :’))

You can try limiting the number of concurrent downloads the launcher does if your connection is slow:

  1. Go to Anki’s installation folder (Right-click the Anki shortcut > Open file location)
  2. You should see a file named pyproject.toml. Open it in notepad.
  3. Add the following to the bottom of the file and save it.
[tool.uv]
concurrent-downloads = 1
  1. Run the launcher from the Anki shortcut. It should download a single file at a time, so if your connection fails, it only needs to redownload the current file.
