Hi, please help! I’m having an issue with my anki deck where I’ll be halfway through any of my decks and then get thrown up the following error;
If I do Tools > Check Database I get the following error code;
DBError { info: “SqliteFailure(Error { code: SystemIOFailure, extended_code: 1034 }, Some(“disk I/O error”))”, kind: Other }
This stops me synching so I lose all my progress and have to start again. It’s only affecting me on one laptop, but not a different laptop. I’ve tried uninstalling Anki and reinstalling it on my affected laptop, but one day later the same thing happened.
Please help, my exam is in a month and I can’t lose all my progress!
By including that image i guess you have already ruled out all of those possible causes as not being applicable for you?
Sounds awfully like a full hard drive to me, are you sure that’s not the case?
You have tried Tools>Check Database as the pop-up reccomends?

Thank you for your reply! I’m not great with technology, so I’m not sure how to investigate those causes. I don’t think my disk is full:
Upon doing Tools > Check Database I get the error message from the title.
Hmmmm… How recent is the error? If it’s not that recent you might still have a rather new backup with a working database.
Under File>Switch Profile>Open Backup... you can look at older versions of your database.
If the error is older you would lose quite a bit of progress so I would only reccomend this method under certain, limited, circumstances.
Otherwise someone with more expertise might need to help you here.

This error happened for the first time yesterday, so it’s very recent - but it’s making Anki completely unusable whilst happening.
Then I would reccomend trying to load a backup as described above. This might fix all the Database issues. You’ll lose your progress from yesterday.

Thank you, I’ll try that!
