Word for word copy paste of what fixed my issue. [Original post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Anki/comments/ndt6ag/comment/gycwiti/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
*btw i had to create a seperate Custom Study for cards i had forgotten, i set it to 1 day, did one review and followed from step 7*
Happened to me as well, idk why. But there is a way to cheat streaks:
1. Check what was the date when you broke your streak, aka the date of that day when you had 0 reviews
2. Turn Anki off
3. Disable "Set time automatically" in Windows (assuming you're using Windows)
4. Manually set the date to that date when you missed a review
5. Turn the Internet connection off (or just unplug your cable)
6. Turn Anki on, do at least 1 review, turn Anki off again
7. Enable "Set time automatically", turn the Internet connection on
8. Turn Anki on and you'll see that it counts as if you really did a review on that day
