I accidentally deleted my flashcards on Ankiweb but do not have Anki app on my computer. What do i do to get them back?
Are there any Anki apps/devices that you sync with? If not, the only option is to restore from a server backup, which could be pretty outdated from where you were, so consider that carefully.
Then, the email address you used to post here doesn’t have an AnkiWeb account. You can change your Forums address to match your AnkiWeb account, or add that other address as a “second” email. I need to verify it’s actually your account before I start messing with it!

Thank you for your reply! I don’t sync with any apps, I only use the web version. I have changed my email to the one I use. I can back up my newer flashcards and copy them back over after the server backup as the ones that were deleted were the main ones I use.
This account is syncing with desktop Anki install. Is that something you just set up today after deleting you cards? If so, yes, you’ll need to make sure you have the most updated version of that collection on your desktop install, so that you can preserve it before you sync with your account again.

The most recent backup I can restore for you is from 24 Dec. After you’ve saved everything you need from your account, please confirm that you want me to restore that.
I haven’t made any changes apart from the deletion yesterday, so the 24th Dec is perfect, thank you!!
Okay, that backup is restored to AnkiWeb. Make sure you download from AnkiWeb on your next sync.
