[Bug]: Couldn't find python (launch.py and webui.py works well)

[RexGhidorah]

Checklist

• The issue exists after disabling all extensions
• The issue exists on a clean installation of webui
• The issue is caused by an extension, but I believe it is caused by a bug in the webui
• The issue exists in the current version of the webui
• The issue has not been reported before recently
• The issue has been reported before but has not been fixed yet

What happened?

I know this is almost 100% a rookie error but I couldn't find any info of how to fix it.
I got my SD/Automatic1111 on D: disk and python is installed on C: disk, so when i try to launch the webui.bat it says python is not installed or something like that.
The most easy solutions would be installing Python directly on D:, but i want to know if there's a way to setup for running in the actual config...
Also, i got an error saying something about "xformers"? The info I found here in the github it's a bit old, so im not sure if its still up-to-date.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1.- I just click the webui.bat and the error ocurrs.
2.- When i click launch.py or webui.py and it works "well" (its a bit slow than before but it works)

What should have happened?

I'm 99% sure its because the installation path of Python, about the xformers thing i have no idea.

What browsers do you use to access the UI ?

Microsoft Edge

That's not the problem. When installing python, did you remember to check "Add to PATH"?

You could also try installing python form the windows store instead.

Or you can try the release package. Unzip it and run update.bat then run.bat.

Also, i got an error saying something about "xformers"? The info I found here in the github it's a bit old, so im not sure if its still up-to-date.

You can ignore that.

I did it, but i discovered that was something with the windows configuration.
Apparently, W11 has a thing that identifies apps for "your convenience" and since the python version is a bit old it marked as a "do not use". I just disabled that thing and now the webui works.
(The only problem now is that i have to upgrade my graphics card hahaha)

Hi! I couldn't find you comment on the github thread but the email said that i can reply directly. I'll show you step to step what i did. - First open your settings:  -Then go to something like "Manage Application Alias":  - Last option:  - Then just search your Python thing and disable it:  That should fix the problem! I hope this helps, happy AI-Generation :D El sáb, 18 may 2024 a la(s) 4:59 p.m., CrabStickCanon ( ***@***.***) escribió:

I have the same issue. What exactly did you do to "disable that thing" in Windows? — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub <#15810 (comment)>, or unsubscribe <https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/BIGM5IW6QXRBDICAKX434JTZC7MMLAVCNFSM6AAAAABHZM6SRGVHI2DSMVQWIX3LMV43OSLTON2WKQ3PNVWWK3TUHMZDCMJZGAZDGNBSGI> .
