So like the subject suggests, I accidentally installed some 3000+ custom nodes, or at least started to. I hit stop when I noticed what was happening, but not before installing hundreds. the first time I booted comfyui it ran scripts for like 45 mins, but now it just keeps saying “unable to start ComfyUI” I’ll post the log below. What can I do?
