ComfyUI update fail

ComfyUI update fail: The installed ComfyUI does not have a Git repository.

Hi
I’m facing same issue on WIndows 11. So please let me add here my explanatioins to dev team.
Installed Comfy desktop v 0.3.15. When it launched, I open Comfyui Manager that says “Your ComfyUI is too OUTDATED!!!”
When tried “Update all”, I got the same error massage as you “ComfyUI update fail: The installed ComfyUI does not have a Git repository.”

It’s the same on Mac OS 15.1

I was also having troubles, WIN 10 here. I even tried a “re-install”, which was the option that in my eyes looked the most close to an “update” button after all the other options in the manager failed. I was also surprised that it did NOT “overinstall” in the same directory if not it was claiming that there is already a comfyui and that I should use another location. This should be fixed imho and it should be possible to re-install in the very same directory if chosen so to keep models, customnodes etc in place. Now I have 2 comfyui’s sitting on my PC with none I would like to keep, cause the new one also tells me that comfui is too outdated. so I will kick everything and restart over again with a complete fresh install

  1. Being able to “reinstall” in the same directory makes sense.
  2. There is no way to update your “ComfyUI version” yet in the Desktop app. We wanted to advance everyone with the latest stable. We can add a way to make this possible however.
