解决在Windows安装stable diffusion遇到“Torch is not able to use GPU”的问题

遇到的问题

在Windows上安装stable diffusion的最后一步执行webui-user.bat时，提示了错误信息AssertionError: Torch is not able to use GPU; add --skip-torch-cuda-test to COMMANDLINE_ARGS variable to disable this check

具体错误代码如下：

venv "C:\Users\giray\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\Python.exe"

解决方法

参考了github上的issue，需要修改webui-user.bat文件，具体更改如下：

COMMANDLINE_ARGS=
and change it to:
COMMANDLINE_ARGS= --lowvram --precision full --no-half --skip-torch-cuda-test

保存修改之后再次运行webui-user.bat就可以了。如果这个解决方法还没解决问题，可以查看同个issue下的其它回答，或者能找到解决方法。
