Great video. In case anyone runs into the same problem I had, when I launched the "webui-user.bat" file, it couldn't find python, even though I clicked the path box as stated in the video. Good news is that the fix is easy and simple. Just edit the .bat file the same way the video instructs you to add the git pull, but this time find the command line "set PYTHON=". After the =, put the path to your python.exe (wherever you installed it to). For example, "set PYTHON=C:\Users\MainUser\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\python.exe"
For me the 'set PYTHON' command was already there. So adding another command actually didnt work. But assigning the file path to the set PYTHON command that was there already worked. Thanks for the help
The problem with many videos like this is that they're usually too focused. "ok i'm gonna show you how to do this with a very obscure git project". But you explained WHY we're using this fork, what this fork is, and explained every stop along the way. well done
If you are having trouble installing torch after launching the .bat file try deleting the venv folder in your stable diffusion webui folder and a new one should be generated after launching the webui-user bat file which will install a compatible version of torch.

Very good instructions. Few things that didn't work: 1) using cmd "git clone" led to "permission denied", so I had to run cmd as admin. 2) double click on webui-user.bat didn't have any effect, so I had to run it via "git CMD". But it worked, thank you very much!

Long process, but well and clearly explained. Totally new product for me. The presentation made it quite interesting. For those that may complain about it being difficult to install i would say that it is not an application for everyone, like Word or PowerPoint. Thanks Kevin. Great video.
I would disagree. Having seen what it can do this kind of program is great for many people, especially creatives who are not always very tech savvy. Saying it's not for everyone is just trying to justify gate-keeping.
No reason for ANY application to be difficult to install, it's MAYBE complicated now cause it's not really widespread, in a year or two it will be a one click thing, like every other piece of software.
I disagree with the statement that the installation process for the product is long. It could be made more efficient and user-friendly for a wider audience. Everyone should have access to use it easily, regardless of their technical skill level. It should not be considered an application only for advanced users.
Kevin - thank you so much for the excellent explanation. Like a few people here I had a Python 310/311 issue with the path. I solved it by renaming the Python 310 app folder to 311 and referring to 311 in the BAT file (even though it was Python 310).

Hello there! Very good tutorial! I'm going to link it in my media for the people who ask me how to install my models :) However, just a quick detail, there's no need to rename the downloaded model as 'model', actually that can lead to confusion of people thinking they have to rename any model, and if you use many models keeping original names helps you keep things organised.

Question. How do I know that it's actually doing something after I click 'Generate'? Is there some sort of a progress bar or some 'Please wait...' animation... thing? I just wanna know that it's processing something and not me waiting for nothing like an idiot for hours.
I had a problem at 7:43 in the video where i waited very long and nothing happened (i checked my D and C drive data transfer on the task manager, but there was no data transfer). So the hint i can give you is to restart your computer after installing everything before doing the cmd thing at 7:43. Now it worked for me. And i set the name of the data "webui-user" to "webui-user.bat" because in my folder the name of the data was "webui-user". I hope this helps someone with the same problem.
I have the same problem, that step takes forever, with no progress. I restarted my pc, and the file is indeed called "webui-user.bat''. But I am still stuck...

Also, I'm a laptop user and have no GPU in my laptop, following the tutorial has helped my greatly but I got stuck on PyTorch not letting me proceed and all I had to do was to change in the webui-user.bat file the set COMMANDLINE_ARGS= --skip-torch-cuda-test --no-half And everything worked perfectly fine.
@@leroydanilov where exactly do I change the text? Do I change --skip-torch-cuda-test with --no half? I must add that everytime I try to write something in the webui-user it crashes/closes. Thank you for help.
Kevin, always like your presentation knowledge base. Just installed Stable Diffusion and ran into a glitch. Installed the model but it failed not finding a torch 2.0.1. Wondering if my python might be a later version than 3.10.6?
A week ago my car broke down in the middle of the night and a car full of mobggers pulled up and started giving me trouble. Thankfully Kevin was driving by. He pulled over and came to help. Not only did he save my life but he got those mobster muggers to turn their life around. Thank you Kevin
I've been trying to get stable diffusion over the past few days. I keep running into an issue that doesn't allow me to download torch. I'm not sure if I messed with the code so that it doesn't work or if the torch download folder changed locations, preventing the previous path from working. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. ~~~ Edit: I figured it out. I had the current version of Python, but it needed to be the 3.10.6 version. In order for the program to work, I also needed to redownload the stable diffusion folder so the system wouldn't check for the current version. I still don't know how to update to the 2.0 or 2.1 version of stable diffusion without causing crashes, but I'll figure it out by the time the next version comes out.
Does your GPU have to be an Nvidia GPU to use stable diffusion? Mine is an AMD Radeon GPU but it has 12 gig memory and should be more than capable of running stable diffusion. I keep getting an error saying torch is unable to use my GPU.
I tried to follow the video, which was very detailed, however, when I started stable diffusion I got an error about creating torch. Any suggestions. I put the stable diffusion on and external SDD.
Make sure you install Python 3.10.6 The link is in his description. Also you have to uninstall newer versions of python before you use the "git clone" function. Hope this helps
PSA: I got a permission error while trying to clone, I had my SD folder inside of my program files folder, which didn't have permission. I made a new folder in C and it worked perfectly. Thanks for the video, it was a great help!

Hello, please I need your help, I tried to install 3 versions of stable diffusion 1.4, 1.5, and 2.0 and yet I have the same error message ( Stable diffusion model failed to load, exiting ). Thank you in advance for your help.
When trying to run the webui-user.bat file these errors pop up ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torch==2.0.1 (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch==2.0.1 Its also detecting python version 3.12.1 even though I have version 3.10.6 installed onto my computer alreadt. Anyone know the fix for this?
Thank you so much, really helpful and easy to follow video. Honestly you got me into AI and this will change my life so thank you again. Only negative I would say which isn't huge is just get all downloads at the start so you don't have to wait when following the tutorial but other than that absolutely perfect.
This was pretty difficult to get working for me since I have an AMD GPU and the PyTorch that came with stability diffusion didn't want to work with my version of python even though I made sure to uninstall the current version/s I had and removed everything from the environment variables before installing. The solution I found was that PyTorch actually has a version 2.0 now that works with the new versions of python and it's completely backwards compatible with the pervious versions of PyTorch. So instead of using the provided PyTorch I used the new version. Search for "stable diffusion pytorch 2.0"
I'm running a desktop 3080, but out of curiosity since you only mentioned NVIDIA at 1:20, would someone running an AMD Radeon discrete GPU be able to use stable diffusion?
thanks for this , saved me the headache of trying to get it working on my own . plz make follow ups for more ways to uses and different models and so on
I had error message :[notice] A new release of pip is available: 23.2.1 -> 23.3.2 [notice] To update, run: C:\Stable diffusion\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip. if you have the same issue open a CMD in the C:\Stable diffusion\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts then type python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
Grateful for this video. Not only did it really dumb down (lol) Stable Diffusion installation, I now understand how the hell I am supposed to download anything on Git Hub. I have wanted to download things from there before but I'd open the window, see a bunch of random files with extensions I am not even familiar with, and I'd say nevermind and close it. lol. I am going to watch your other videos on it. Much appreciated!
really good video .I was stuck while downloading stable diffusion , but this video saved a lot of my time , plus it was easy as everything was so systematic...
Automatic1111 includes a nice UX and also contains performance optimizations for consumer grade hardware. Base Stable Diffusion is all command line and runs into performance issues.
im getting this error when I run the .bat file AssertionError: Torch is not able to use GPU; add --skip-torch-cuda-test to COMMANDLINE_ARGS variable to disable this check
Great video, but I am getting 2 errors that are preventing me from continuing. 1. Fatal error about dubious ownership in repository. 2. The "Python was not found" error. I have tried re-installing the version in the video multiple times.
Not sure if you forgot to mention this in the video or not but does this tutorial cover how to install this for non NVIDIA GPU users? Is there anyway to get SD running natively with an AMD GPU or are we stuck with long wait times using the CPU? Could you do a tutorial on this if thats the case? I appreciate your help.
Great video. In case anyone runs into the same problem I had, when I launched the "webui-user.bat" file, it couldn't find python, even though I clicked the path box as stated in the video.

Seems to be stuck on "Model loaded in 121.4s (load weights from disk: 82.4s, create model: 4.6s, apply weights to model: 4.7s, apply half(): 3.6s, apply dtype to VAE: 0.2s, load VAE: 0.5s, move model to device: 13.1s, hijack: 0.3s, load textual inversion embeddings: 2.3s, calculate empty prompt: 9.6s)." and I am not seeing much use in CPU, GPU,. or disk.
Wow. Really thorough. Lots of information in such a small amount of time. My A.D.D. brain is a BIG fan. Thank you!!!
Perfect timimg, was looking for a guide on it this week 👍 3090 space heater mode engaged 😁
As always a nice and helpful video, this is no the first time I'm installing a software and initiate with a new journey of knowledge thanks to your tutorials.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge, you do a great job guiding us step by step, to get to the final result.
I have absolute zero no clue and can follow this video to make ai art, this is absolute great guide
Another good one, thanks Kevin!
I look in the comments.....and I find my great Maths teacher!!!! What a lovely coincidence.
It worked after I uninstalled all of my other python versions :)
IF DON'T HAVE GPU:
Very good, 4/5 just because I had to reclone the git repository for having python 3.11 and not 3.10. Also, I'm a laptop user and have no GPU in my laptop, following the tutorial has helped my greatly but I got stuck on PyTorch not letting me proceed and all I had to do was to change in the webui-user.bat file the set COMMANDLINE_ARGS= --skip-torch-cuda-test --no-half
And everything worked perfectly fine.
OMG you are are a saint, tried the skip test and that got it to open but then was getting the lowvram error....added the no-half and it works!!!!!
@@RealityNonSequitur I’m glad I could help ☺️
Sending you digital cookies
digital hugs as well coz gosh was I tired from trying to find what is wrong with this shit
@@Random_-th5vr yeah it was really annoying, glad I could help
@@leroydanilov where exactly do I change the text? Do I change --skip-torch-cuda-test with --no half? I must add that everytime I try to write something in the webui-user it crashes/closes.
Thank you for help.
Salute to Techies out there for spending a lot of time for installing a lot of python packages
Kevin, always like your presentation knowledge base. Just installed Stable Diffusion and ran into a glitch. Installed the model but it failed not finding a torch 2.0.1. Wondering if my python might be a later version than 3.10.6?
Waiting for full tutorial to learn Stable Diffusion , Special thanks to kevin for this wonderful tutorial.
A week ago my car broke down in the middle of the night and a car full of mobggers pulled up and started giving me trouble. Thankfully Kevin was driving by. He pulled over and came to help. Not only did he save my life but he got those mobster muggers to turn their life around.
Thank you Kevin
I've been trying to get stable diffusion over the past few days. I keep running into an issue that doesn't allow me to download torch. I'm not sure if I messed with the code so that it doesn't work or if the torch download folder changed locations, preventing the previous path from working. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
~~~
Edit: I figured it out. I had the current version of Python, but it needed to be the 3.10.6 version. In order for the program to work, I also needed to redownload the stable diffusion folder so the system wouldn't check for the current version.
I still don't know how to update to the 2.0 or 2.1 version of stable diffusion without causing crashes, but I'll figure it out by the time the next version comes out.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH, I had to reinstall it due to issues and your guide is so much easier than the others.
Does your GPU have to be an Nvidia GPU to use stable diffusion? Mine is an AMD Radeon GPU but it has 12 gig memory and should be more than capable of running stable diffusion. I keep getting an error saying torch is unable to use my GPU.
The best VDO so far. You make it so simple and easy for new learners ;)
Would you consider making an alternative version of this tutorial for owners of AMD Radeon video cards ? thanks!
Professionally done. One of the best video tutorials I've every come across. BRAVO!
I tried to follow the video, which was very detailed, however, when I started stable diffusion I got an error about creating torch. Any suggestions. I put the stable diffusion on and external SDD.
same problem
Make sure you install Python 3.10.6
The link is in his description. Also you have to uninstall newer versions of python before you use the "git clone" function.
Hope this helps
PSA: I got a permission error while trying to clone, I had my SD folder inside of my program files folder, which didn't have permission. I made a new folder in C and it worked perfectly.
Thanks for the video, it was a great help!
Doesn't work for AMD GPUs. There is a workaround to use your CPU instead but that is not at all optimal
Wow, best guide I've seen for this yet. Subscribed, thank you!
raise RuntimeError("Cannot add middleware after an application has started"_
RuntimeError: Cannot add middleware after an application has started.
Local URL: wont launch. Pls help
Clearest explanation on youtube, thanks👍👍
On the 7:33 min, I got the "exit code: 3" , launch unsuccessful. Exiting
How can I fix this ? :/ thanks for the help !
i need help 2 :(

same here.
did u fix it?
thank you so much man. incredible tutorial. i am familiar with installing things on a pc but i know that there are some people out there that struggle with file placement and i know that even this is about as simple and great of a tutorial as there can be,
im so lucky to find you with a guide i need
I get some error with something called "torch" anyone else?
try deleting the venv folder in your stable diffusion webui folder, will generate another one after you execute de webui-user again.
One of the best and most clear tutorials ever!!
How to fix: Torch is not able to use GPU!
I have python 3.10.6 so python isn't the problem
Anyone knows how to fix this?
I tried this and got further webui-user.bat file and under the arguments type "--skip-torch-cuda-test"....but then got Warning: caught exception 'Found no NVIDIA driver on your system. Basically think the video fails to stress this won't work on AMD!
this is how a tutorial should be !
Hello, please I need your help, I tried to install 3 versions of stable diffusion 1.4, 1.5, and 2.0 and yet I have the same error message ( Stable diffusion model failed to load, exiting ). Thank you in advance for your help.
My dude, I have been struggling with stable diffusion and this video helped so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
When trying to run the webui-user.bat file these errors pop up
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torch==2.0.1 (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch==2.0.1
Its also detecting python version 3.12.1 even though I have version 3.10.6 installed onto my computer alreadt. Anyone know the fix for this?
Thank you so much, really helpful and easy to follow video. Honestly you got me into AI and this will change my life so thank you again. Only negative I would say which isn't huge is just get all downloads at the start so you don't have to wait when following the tutorial but other than that absolutely perfect.
This was pretty difficult to get working for me since I have an AMD GPU and the PyTorch that came with stability diffusion didn't want to work with my version of python even though I made sure to uninstall the current version/s I had and removed everything from the environment variables before installing. The solution I found was that PyTorch actually has a version 2.0 now that works with the new versions of python and it's completely backwards compatible with the pervious versions of PyTorch. So instead of using the provided PyTorch I used the new version. Search for "stable diffusion pytorch 2.0"
thank you
"PERMISSION DENIED". Useful. I'm crying holy shit
I'm running a desktop 3080, but out of curiosity since you only mentioned NVIDIA at 1:20, would someone running an AMD Radeon discrete GPU be able to use stable diffusion?
up !!!
thanks for this , saved me the headache of trying to get it working on my own . plz make follow ups for more ways to uses and different models and so on
I had error message :[notice] A new release of pip is available: 23.2.1 -> 23.3.2
[notice] To update, run: C:\Stable diffusion\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip. if you have the same issue open a CMD in the C:\Stable diffusion\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts then type python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
Thank you for this 👍
i have that problem but i don't understand wat to do
Grateful for this video. Not only did it really dumb down (lol) Stable Diffusion installation, I now understand how the hell I am supposed to download anything on Git Hub. I have wanted to download things from there before but I'd open the window, see a bunch of random files with extensions I am not even familiar with, and I'd say nevermind and close it. lol. I am going to watch your other videos on it. Much appreciated!
"Download model / checkpoint" redirects to 404
Thank you Kevin. Your clear step-by-step explanation is very helpful.
thx for the Video greatly appreciated. Is there any way to use your Instructions with the 2.1 ckpt files ?
Great tutorial, love your teaching style, right to the point. Thank you!
When i launch my webui-user i got an error 9009 where python was not found
how do i solve this?
did you figure out?
really good video .I was stuck while downloading stable diffusion , but this video saved a lot of my time , plus it was easy as everything was so systematic...
Nice video! I am seeing many videos on version 1111. Is this just a different UI, or is something better in the code ?
Automatic1111 includes a nice UX and also contains performance optimizations for consumer grade hardware. Base Stable Diffusion is all command line and runs into performance issues.
Great video. To the point. You managed somehow to be enthusiastic about something this monotonic xD Nice!
git clone doesnt work seems like the github page show 404
I got the same problem
This is very well done. Thank you for explaining this so well wiht clear steps and just the right amount of detail.
im getting this error when I run the .bat file
AssertionError: Torch is not able to use GPU; add --skip-torch-cuda-test to COMMANDLINE_ARGS variable to disable this check
Me too! Does anybody know how to fix it?
were you able to solve the problem? if yes, please tell me how
Thanks so much for this your the Best youtube tutorial guy I have seen in a while
Fantastic, thank you. Whatever your field of expertise is, you're also an expert at teaching. Slick work.
Great video, but I am getting 2 errors that are preventing me from continuing.
1. Fatal error about dubious ownership in repository.
2. The "Python was not found" error. I have tried re-installing the version in the video multiple times.
Make sure you install it on the C Drive?
Not sure if you forgot to mention this in the video or not but does this tutorial cover how to install this for non NVIDIA GPU users? Is there anyway to get SD running natively with an AMD GPU or are we stuck with long wait times using the CPU? Could you do a tutorial on this if thats the case? I appreciate your help.
