Hello,
I have many flashcards (over 35,000) and many decks. In some decks, there are flashcards that I have duplicated because, depending on the stage of the public exam I’m taking, I use a different deck.
In some situations, I would like to be able to compare these duplicated flashcards to check if there are any differences between them (sometimes there’s a legislative change that I’ve updated in one but not in the other).
Would it be possible to open two ‘Browse’ windows in Anki at the same time?
I am not sure about native support, but perhaps if you install virtual machine or Bluestacks you could open second browser window in second Anki installation. Also websites like text-compare.com/ could help you compare 2 cards fast, especially when dealing with longer texts and small changes.
edit: perhaps the second comment have safer solution
I strongly caution against using 2 separate installations to access the same database at the same time. Best case scenario – it simply wouldn’t work – because if it works, you are at a very high risk of ruining your database.
There are add-ons that will do that for you – the Opening the same window multiple time add-on, for one.

Thanks! The add-on worked!
