Before posting, please verify that you've done the following

  • read the "before you install instructions" and disabled all the known conflicted add-ons.
  • You've looked through previous issues to see if someone else had the same problem.

Describe the bug
The code that sets an individual deck background seems to be using the string:
'{base}/user_files/assets/deck_backgrounds/%(deck)s.jpg' (deck_overview.py around line 410)
the issue is that subdecks are delineated by :: and in Windows : is an invalid filename character, so you are unable to set custom backgrounds for any subdecks you use (nor does the root deck apply to the subdeck, which might be more a feature request than a bug)

Screenshots
I could provide screenshots, though the bug is easy to reproduce

Contex (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10
  • Anki Version 25.02
  • screen Resolution 1920x1080
