My collection.media folder was taking up alot of space so I put it on another drive. However, if I open anki now it doesn’t recognize my media files. How can I fix this? I really have no space for the folder to be on my local drive.
In the manual it says: If you always want to use a custom folder location, you can modify your shortcut to Anki. On Windows, right-click on the shortcut, choose Properties, select the Shortcut tab, and add “-b \path\to\data\folder” after the path to the program, which should leave you with something like
“C:\Program Files\Anki\anki.exe” -b “C:\AnkiDataFolder”
I have tried it and done it like this:
I’m not sure if I did it correctly, but it didn’t work for me.
I moved my collection.media folder to where I have anki installed like this:
Hope anyone can help, thanks in advance!
