How to restore “collection.anki2” file into “.akpg”?












1















I forgot to export an important deck
before formating my D-drive.
Using hard-disk recovery tools,
I got back a “collection.anki2 file”.



Every time I import it into Anki,
Anki shows a dialog box:
“.anki2 files are not designed for importing.
If you're trying to restore from a backup,
please see the ['Backups' section of the user manual.][2]”
'corrupt-collections' section of the user manual
I couldn’t got a clue, after reading the user manual.



Many many thanks

          Its basically a SQLite 3 file. You can open it with a DB Browser of your choice. Then select the "notes" table, in it are all your cards.
