Cloze cards deleted, how to put them back?

Hello everyone,
First just know that english is not my first language so sorry if sometimes my problem doesn’t seem clear.
By mistake, I “deleted” the “cloze” type of cards in what we’ll call “cloze deleted” type of note. I succeeded to create another type of note by duplicating the “default” cloze cards setting. But I know need all the cards from the “cloze deleted” type of note to have this new cloze setting. But I can’t select “cloze cards” in the “modify type of note” setting because it doesn’t appear.
How can I do it ?

Thank you !!

I’m sorry to tell you, but if you deleted the “cloze deleted” note type – you also deleted all of the notes that used that note type.

Depending on how long ago was this, there may be ways to get them back.

  • If you want to roll-back changes you’ve made just now (and haven’t closed or synced since then) – Edit > Undo [Ctrl Z] the change. [If you select it from the menu Anki will describe which change it is reversing with each click (useful when you can’t see where the change is happening!).]
  • If you want to roll-back changes made longer ago than that – Restore from an automatic or manual backup, Restoring an Automatic Backup (Recovering from Data Loss) - Frequently Asked Questions .
    • If you just want to grab one thing from a backup (like the text of a template, or one deck out of many, or a set of notes/cards that use a particular note type), you can minimize data loss by importing the backup into a brand new (temporary) profile, find what you’re looking for, copy/export it, and then import it into your main profile.
