Anki 25.08 Beta 3+

Anki Beta Testing

It’s only the latter that you need to modify.

23

Oh, my bad. The previous launcher was working “correctly” on modifying the former one. So, I never realized that it was not the file I was supposed to modify.

On modifying the latter file, the issue was resolved. Thank you.

Since Anki has to be used with a launcher that downloads something, there should now be details on how to make backups of Anki itself in the manual.

If a Filtered deck’s query has an unmatched parenthesis, the error message contains unescaped HTML:

<p>Invalid search: <U+2068>an opening bracket <code>(</code> 
was found, but there was no closing bracket <code>)</code> 
following it. If you want to search for a literal 
<code>(</code>, wrap it in double quotes or prepend a 
backslash: <code>"("</code> or <code>\(</code> 
.<U+2069></p>

Not so in the Browser.

After downloading the latest launcher and clicking upgrade/downgrade, a new terminal window kept opening every second, had to force quit terminal (on mac) in order for it to stop. The issue didn’t persist after that, and I was able to upgrade to the latest beta. I wasn’t able to reproduce by clicking upgrade/downgrade after update.

I had the same issue on first run of the new launcher. Macbook Air M4, macOS 15.6.

Can’t save a preset after changing DR from 70 to 71
