1:10 disable or uninstall a node if you want on the right you can see the author the number of stars and the last update you can sort by stars to see the more popular custom nodes or sort by update or by ID in the last episode with control net I used an art Venture node for pre-processing however some users experience errors with it and I found an alternative solution so this is a good opportunity to show you how to uninstall a node click on uninstall and then confirm by clicking okay when it's finished you'll see a restart button I also want to uninstall another node that we used in episode 6 and showed an alternative for in episode 7 so I'll uninstall the style CSV loader node as well by the way if you see a warning sign you can click on it to view nodes that might cause conflicts these conflicts often arise because these nodes have overlapping functions or names with other nodes in your comfy UI environment most of the time you can ignore These Warnings but if you have many custom nodes be aware of them you might need to disable a node to see if that resolves issues in your workflow let's restart comfy UI now that we've removed two custom nodes but don't worry
