I have followed everything and triple checked, but when i try to open SD through the shortcut i get "No Python at '"C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\python.exe'" I installed anaconda and SD in different drives, could that be causing the issue?
Possibly. If your Anaconda is on a different drive, try this: 1. Click on Start Menu (Windows Key) and start typing 'Anaconda Prompt' 2. Instead of clicking on it, right-click on it, and click 'Open File Location' (option under 'Run as Administrator' on Windows 11) 3. You will see a folder with several shortcuts: Anaconda Prompt, Anaconda PowerShell, Anaconda Navigator, etc. Right-click on Anaconda Prompt, select Properties. 4. In 'Target', you should see something like this: %windir%\System32\cmd.exe "/K" C:\Users\professorlich\anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat C:\Users\professorlich\anaconda3 My trick with shortcuts is essentially the modification of the above. %windir%\System32\cmd.exe - this is the path to regular command prompt executable (%windir% is a shortcut for C:\Windows) Pay attention to the second path: C:\Users\professorlich\anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat If you have installed Anaconda on Drive D or E, this will be different.
By the way, this is one of my first TH-cam guides. Shortly after making it, I realised I need to explain better what is going on, rather than getting people to blindly follow the recipe. To address this discrepancy, I have made an update to this guide. See below (rewind ahead): th-cam.com/video/RDuIeuOIB7s/w-d-xo.html This updated video has better explanation and visual aids, so that people can develop a sense of what happens when they execute these commands. 👍
@@professorlich Thanks for trying to help, i just ended up placing everything on the same drive and it was fine. Will be checking the updated gude though.
Hi, I am trying to do what you are showing, but I can't download a the previous versions before 3.10.14. I downloaded Anaconda and tried to do things like you show it. Can you help?
It is tricky since I cannot see exactly what is happening on your screen. Let's try a different approach, using CLI: 1. We make sure you are in the right environment. 2. We make sure you have activated the environment. 3. We install the correct Python. Begin by listing all your current environments: `conda env list` If this gives you error, you are likely in PowerShell or Command Prompt. It needs to be Anaconda Prompt. We use `create` to create a new environment called `py3106` (where we will install 3.10.6, for example): `conda create --name py3106` Once you run `conda env list`, your environment should be listed there. You should now be able to switch to that environment: `conda activate py3106` Let's do a search for all Python versions available: `conda search python` Suppose you want to list all the versions that begin with 3.10. We narrow down the search: `conda search python=3.10` You decide you want to install 3.10.6: `conda install python=3.10.6` And you are done. Check that all is well by running `python --version` and `pip --version` commands. Hope this helps and good luck!
I followed your video and now I can’t even open stable difussion. I’m furious!! Why would you put information that doesn’t work. It was working perfectly until I tried this and now it doesn’t open. Whoever is watching this. Do not try this. It took me days to even download stable difussion and I had so many things added to it already. Honestly this is horrible. Do not try this video.
Valentina, I am sorry this has happened to you, and thank you for letting me know. While I can't tell exactly what went wrong, there are two things I gleam from your comment: a) "It took me days to even download stable diffusion": I should have explained how to back up your project; and b) "I had so many things added to it already": I should have explained how "adding to it" can be automated, so that installing things does not feel like a chore. I will try to do a better job explaining this in my next video.
This is so useful, thank you!

Honestly it just sounds like you don't know what you are doing and putting the blame on the guide.
