comfyUI

[plucky nest]

hello i need some help... so i installed comfyui and all but the models are taking so much space and my C disk is getting full, is there is a way to copy/paste files in my D disk? i tried that and there was a little problem with the miniconda trying to find it

[north charm]

how did u download comfy ui?

because there’s the portable zip that can be easily cut and pasted somewhere else

[plucky nest]

via terminal

[north charm]

so the manual installation?

Which GPU and OS are u using

[plucky nest]

actually i kinda solved it by installing the whole thing as a file from their website

[plucky nest]

7900xtx/windows no clues if this is relavent anymore xd

[north charm]

you mean the windows portable zip ig

[north charm]

well the portable zip is technically just for nvidia windows, not sure if u did smt else

[plucky nest]

[north charm]

ok yeah ur right it doesnt work its using my cpu instead of gpu

back to square one

how can i change the location of this thing from C to D disk 😭

[north charm]

In the Comfyui directory, there is the extra_model_paths.yaml

here you should be able to change the model path

[plucky nest]

but this means i can't change the whole of comfyui outside C only models right?

[plucky nest]

i see it

am guessing i delete the example and uhh type the path in it? or do i copy the file somewhere where models are stored in D?

[north charm]

yeah

you could also try moving the git cloned thing or reinstall it on another drive

but not sure if it will work

[north charm]

you basically edit it for your own path

with any text editor

[plucky nest]

tried just copying the whole thing and run it still but it doesnt detect it

[plucky nest]

oh okok

[plucky nest]

it works now

so basically i figured out how to install conda in my D disk

[north charm]

oh so u just reinstalled it on ur d drive rather than editing the yaml?

[plucky nest]

yup, i want to keep my C disk as clean as possible because my last pc got hacked because i didnt take care of security and when i wanted to retrieve my data C drive being full kinda messed it up so i had to do a fresh install

sorry if i offended you, your solution is great tho and that video you sent me did help me know how to change conda base location ❤️

[north charm]

understood

[north charm]

Nah dw, what matters is that the issue is solved lol
