Install ComfyUI using Easy Install

Demo summary

The instructor demonstrates how to download the ComfyUI Easy Install zip from GitHub, extract it, and run the BAT file to set up a portable local installation.

Step-by-step

  1. Download the latest release zip from the GitHub Windows installation section
  2. Create a new folder on a drive with significant free space
  3. Move the zip archive into the new folder
  4. Extract the zip archive using 'Extract All' or a tool like WinRAR
  5. Double-click the ComfyUI easy install BAT file
  6. Click 'Run' on the security warning
  7. Press 'Yes' if prompted to install or update Git
  8. Wait for the 'Installation complete' message and press any key to exit

Options

  • Use Windows integrated 'Extract All' or third-party tools like WinRAR
  • Name the installation folder anything easy to remember, such as including the current month

Watch out for

  • The installation requires a lot of disk space for large models
  • You must have Git installed or allow the BAT file to install it for you

Tips

  • Install on a solid state drive (SSD) to ensure models load faster
  • Delete the folder name at the end of the extraction path to avoid nested folders
  • Delete the easy install zip file after extraction to save space
  • Scan the BAT file with antivirus if you have security concerns, though it is verified safe by the creator
