I keep getting an error message when I try to hit the “again” button on my computer. This occurs whenever I have no add-ons enabled, and it occurs when I use the “1” key & when I use my mouse to click the “again” button. Please help!

Couldn’t find a solution to this problem, could you try Anki → Preferences → Scheduling → V3 Scheduler

Hopefully by using the v3 schedule it will avoid the v2 schedule error

if you use anki mobile, you will need to enable v3 schedule

on anki droid, v3 schedule is available on alpha builds
