I guess it’s caused by the load balancer of FSRS Helper add-on. ---

> [@L.M.Sherlock](#): > > I cannot reproduce the second problem. Could you send me a backup file and the steps to reproduce this problem? Here is a sample deck: [Gofile - Cloud Storage Made Simple](https://gofile.io/d/cFcqqo) Steps to reproduce: 1. open `Filtered Deck 16:08` (already built), and go to the first review card. 2. Use `Set Due Date` (`Ctrl + Shift + D`) and set it to any value, e.g., `1`. 3. Check the new `Due Date` using `Ctrl + Alt + I`. Also, here is a visual example: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/3X/5/b/5b0eb122300ec7544e64a37e52a214a0163fa7d1.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/3X/f/f/ff8bca99e0fe5eec591fff437249a0143d49dfb9.png) ---

The new installer doesn’t work for me. The command line appears for a split second and disappears Also, I’m not sure if i’m using it correctly. I downloaded it from [here](https://github.com/ankitects/anki/releases/tag/packaging-test) and just ran anki-install.exe. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/3X/4/7/47570199008d835f4a07f47cb0ce0ef6422422f1.png) ---

Thanks. HyperTTS looks to be vendoring some third-party code that I’m guessing has broken with the switch to Python 3.13 on Windows. @lucw The other ones are caused by the add-ons trying to parse the version number instead of using [Porting tips for Anki 23.10](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/porting-tips-for-anki-23-10/35916). If they follow recommended practice, it’ll fix the problem. Those errors won’t happen for stable releases - they’re caused by the beta/rc tag being included in the version number now. ---
