This is a tutorial on how you can backup and restore your Discord favorite gifs (on windows)

tutorial.md

This won't work anymore because Discord moved to cloud storage for the gifs

Backup

1. Open Discord.
2. Press CTRL, SHIFT and I on your keyboard at the same time.
3. In the newly opened window, at the top, click the >> button, and then click on Application.
   
4. Once in the Application tab, click the little triangle next to Local Storage, and then click on https://discordapp.com.
   
5. At the top of the tab type gif in the box that says Filter.
   
6. Double click the value of GIFFavoritesStore and copy that somewhere. Backup done!
   

Restore

1. Repeat steps 1 - 5 of the Backup section of this guide.
2. Double click the value of GIFFavoritesStore and paste the value you backed up. After that press ENTER.
3. Click the X button in the top right corner.
   
4. Press CTRL and R on your keyboard at the same time. Restore done!

Is there now? Do tell me.

Its just part of discord. They move the old favorites data to the new favorites spot so you dont lose it when going to the new system where its all online.

...'aite. Thanks for giving a heads up.

Thank you very much! Interesting that GIFs are not shown in the client even while exist in the storage:

Lots all my favorited gifs in the tranfer process and can't even use my backup....

I made this exporter for you: https://codepen.io/bepvte/full/VwzVzpq .

Nice! Interesting that some media downloads while viewing an exported/parsed HTML, and some - does not. It seems the "src" value may or may not start with "http(s):", thus added a little change: https://jsfiddle.net/26va05b3/

For example, some Json contained:

{    
    "width":640,
    "height":640,
    "src":"//media.tenor.com/videos/b4f873c80148b9f044a0c68acee0f81d/mp4",
    "url":"https://tenor.com/view/stars-glitters-sparkles-purple-shiny-gif-17171909",
    "format":"VIDEO"
}

• //media.tenor.com/videos/b4f873c80148b9f044a0c68acee0f81d/mp4 - 404 status in some browsers since they set it to local file:///media.tenor.com;
• https://tenor.com/view/stars-glitters-sparkles-purple-shiny-gif-17171909 - Opens the page, but it's not loading in <video>.

Ty, merged into my codepen. You forgot to include the jsdelivr for file-saver in yours I think

I think this has been changed.. Update?
