Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI-Manager/issues/1706

pretty sure i tried method for portable version, but it didn't work, my comfyUI was installed from exe, if this is the method for me:

Installation[method3] (Installation through comfy-cli: install ComfyUI and ComfyUI-Manager at once.)
RECOMMENDED: comfy-cli provides various features to manage ComfyUI from the CLI.
prerequisite: python 3, git
Windows:
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate
pip install comfy-cli
comfy install

then where am i supposed to input this command to? I'm sorry for such a basic question I'm very new to this software

I went to the official website https://www.comfy.org/download, downloaded exe installer, followed the steps, and there i have comfy ui as a separate application as opposed to web server viewable in browser

I'm also downloading the client version, and he has the "Manager" plugin in the upper left corner, but it doesn't work properly, so we're in the same situation?

Yeah, man, I have no idea what to do, the native manager is subpar, i downloaded a few workflow and it can't properly detect and download loras and other models that came with it

So it's the desktop version.

In that case, ComfyUI-Manager is included by default.
But you don't see the Manager.

Please upload the full log file.
