Hello  
I accidentally deleted my decks from my anki when I had another computer.  
Can I recover this deck from Anki servers? It has more than 1300 cards ☹  
I can’t recover using a backup file because it was made using another computer.

Now I have another with only 100 cards but I’d like to recover my old deck.

Thank u

Is there currently no auto back up for your pc?

If you have not yet synchronized AnkiWeb after deleting it, maybe you can use this setting.

- Tools \> Preferencces \> Syncing \> Synchronisation \> On next sync, force changes in one direction \> Sync \> Download from AnkiWeb

But I think AnkiWeb only stores one data, so if you have already overwritten the data, you cannot recover it from AnkiWeb.

AnkiWeb takes occasional backups, and your backup does not appear to have more cards than you currently have in your AnkiWeb collection.

Thank u guys!  
Actually, the backup was made using another computer so I don’t have it anymore.  
It was an old deck that I made 1 year ago and I’d like to know if by any chance it could be on ankiweb servers. But no hassle.

Thank you for your help 🙂
