Hi there, can you please upload the following files from your logs directory?

  • main.log
  • comfyui.log

Log file locations can be found in the desktop user guide.

But new user can not upload file

No worries! Can you please email them through to hello@comfy.org?

Please paste this anywhere in the email so we can match it easily:

Your installation is missing several files, from the logs. Can you please follow the full uninstall procedure in the desktop user guide?

Be sure to also remove the folder you are selecting during the installation process (or rename it). Once you have done this, you can reinstall the app - be sure to install to an empty directory.

I have the same problem, when I start it it says “Unable to start ComfyUI Desktop v0.4.18”
