But if I do that, when will the profile synchronize? Would I have to do it manually?

Yes, I think that’s what they are suggesting. Alternatively you can just ignore the error, since it happens during shutdown and should not affect your collection.

Hmmm… Another work-around then is to reinstall ANKI, it still works without the error for some time (and then you can reinstall again :slight_smile: ) At least no problem forgetting to sync (I use Desktop and Mobile interchangeably, so forgetting to sync would cause lots of problems, hehe) :smiley:

Yes, you would have to manually sync (with y on computer, or Sync button on mobile).

I made it a habit to manually sync before closing Anki, because I like seeing the colors change, haha.

Any incentive can motivate, haha! Good on you!

I’ve had the same issue for the past 3-5 builds

Anyone find a fix?

Same here.
For me it happens when closing app and when change the structure of the tree of decks on Deck window.

How does the latest beta fare? https://betas.ankiweb.net/

Still have these issues with 2.1.63. Sometimes loading in Safe Mode helps, sometimes it doesn’t.

If you start Anki, go into the preferences screen, and reset window positions, does that help?

I have the same issue. Using a MacBook Pro M1 MacOS 13.3.1(a). Has been happening since I upgraded to the M1 MacBook Pro a few months ago. Almost every time I close Anki I get the error message “Anki Quit Unexpectedly.” I tried to reset window size and that didn’t fix it. I’m running the latest Anki 2.1.63 but this has been happening for several previous releases as well.

A crash when closing Anki is a known issue. It’s not easy to fix I’m afraid, but should not cause a loss of data.

Me too
