Describe the bug Endless "Stable Diffusion is loading..." when press the "Make Image" button, nothing happens. I tried Version 4 a few times in the last months but it's still the same.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Press the "Make Image" button, then nothing happens except that there is a message "Stable Diffusion is loading..." at the top right corner

Expected behavior I would expect that an image is created.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Win 11
  • Browser: Firefox 153.0.3
  • Version: 4.5.0 (EasyDiffusion Version 3 is working)
  • CPU AMD 9700X, GPU AMD RX 9060 XT (16GB), 32 GB Ram

Additional context Error message (that's all, nothing more): "Exception in thread Thread-5: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\EasyDiffusion\installer_files\env\lib\threading.py", line 980, in _bootstrap_inner self.run() File "C:\EasyDiffusion\installer_files\env\lib\threading.py", line 917, in run self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs) File "C:\EasyDiffusion\\ui\easydiffusion\backends\common.py", line 10, in read_output print(f"{prefix}{output.decode('utf-8')}", end="") UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xfc in position 90: invalid start byte"
