Some other info:

  • Mac M1 Pro, OS 15.1.1 (24B91)
  • Comfy Version 0.3.15 (2411269w5b82dg2)
  • When install, I chose the custom location is ~/Applications

I reinstalled and unchecked auto update, it moves forward now.

Did you reinstall in the same location? The app will try to create directories like models your selected location and generally you can’t create things there without admin permissions.

Nvm I tried and installing in ~/Applications does work.
