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:
- Open your Anki
- Chose your Anki account for which you want to locate the media files
- Go to Tools Menu
- Preferences...
- Backups tab
- click on Open backup folder
- 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.
