Where does Anki store media?

In Windows 7 Win10, default Anki 2.0 installation stores the media files inside this folder:

C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Anki2\yourankiaccountname\collection.media

If this isn't the correct folder for you, find it by following this step by step:

1. Open your Anki
2. Chose your Anki account for which you want to locate the media files
3. Go to Tools Menu
4. Preferences...
5. Backups tab
6. click on Open backup folder
7. You will find the collection.media folder as a sibling folder of the backups folder

Shorter version: Open Anki → Chose your Anki account → Tools Menu → Preferences... → Backups tab → Open backup folder → find backups folder → go up one level → and you find your collection.media folder

On Ubuntu the right path is:

~/.local/share/Anki2/Benutzer 1/collection.media

Anki Manual - File Locations

collection.media will be in folders <your_user_name> in the directory:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Anki2

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Anki2

Linux: ~/.local/share/Anki2 or $XDG_DATA_HOME/Anki2

For example, it's ~/Library/Application Support/Anki2/User 1/collection.media on a mac by default.
