Hello

I wanted to try \*\*Qwen Image Edit  
for that I installed ComfyUI (Desktop version)  
Dow load a GGUF Workflow (\*\*qwen\_image\_edit\_gguf.json)  
and **required Models (Including VAE, Lightning 4-step,** …)

when I open workflow, I get these Node Types are missing

**ModelPatchTorchSettings,  
CLIPLoaderGGUF  
UnetLoaderGGUF  
PathchSageAttentionKJ**

I press install missing Nodes.  
but it stays on install and won’t finish or show any progress bar or %  
I leg comfyUI open for about 3 hours and when i open it again, still Missing Nodes and no Installation happend

so I installed those manually  
Open CMD as Admin in ComfyUI\Custom\_Nodes (where ComfyUI-Manager is)  
git Clone http … ComfyUI-GGUF  
git Clone http … ComfyUI-KJNodes  
then pip install requirements.txt for both

still when i open comfyUI i get missing nodes  
and in ComfyUI-Manager Don’t see any Node installed and Install Button’s still not working

**now**  
I’m from **Iran** which probably filter some Sites, might be include some ComfyUI’s sites  
when i open ComfyUI, proxy off I don’t see anything in ComfyUI-Manager  
when i oepn ComfyUI, proxy on. I only see two package node  
• GGUF  
• KJNodes  
don’t see any other Node or package

I also keep getting warning that my **pip** is ver 22.0 and i must upgrade it to 25.0

i hope someone be able to help me  
OS: windows 11

If you already know how to use a git command, give the Portable Version a try. Is by far way more easy to mantain and understand what is happening. The Desktop installer has too many problems yet. 🤓
