Cannot update

[MrKibernetik]

It just cannot update.
If to press "Update" button in ComfyUI Manager, it says "The update for the following custom nodes has failed: reactor". And after that reactor disappears from the list of installed nodes in ComfyUI Manager. And cannot be installed again because Manager says that these directories already exist.
So, a lot of mess just after an attempt to update. Reactor definitely need to survive updating from ComfyUI Manager as all other nodes.

If to press "Update" button in ComfyUI Manager, it says...

1/ Do not use Manager to update. Make all manually! It's pretty EASY. ✅

--- What to do: ---
1/ Delete your folder 'comfyui-reactor-node' from folder 'custom_nodes': -- from C:\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\ (as example, use your own adress)
2/ Go to Reactor's page on Codeberg.org -- ('freedom' version of Reactor) -- https://codeberg.org/Gourieff/comfyui-reactor-node
3/ Press on THREE DOTES button on top right corner -- choose "Download ZIP"
4/ Unpack .zip file -- and place 'comfyui-reactor-node' folder in your 'custom_nodes' folder, as example (use your own adress): C:\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\comfyui-reactor-node

THATS ALL! 💥

Now you have updated Reactor to lastest version. ✌✌✌

***Note: this way works if you have installed Reactor before -- and need to only update. If you install Reactor from zero -- you need to make one step more: after copy folder 'comfyui-reactor-node' -- you need run 'requirements.txt' from Reactor's folder in command line -- to install 'dependencies packs'. How to do (Windows):

Go in folder C:\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\comfyui-reactor-node --> and click on folder's adress bar --> type cmd --> press Enter
It's open cmd (black window) -- command-line window
In this window type command (you can copy and paste) --> then press Enter:

For portable version of ComfyUI:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

For not portable (run cmd as Administrator!):
pip install -r requirements.txt

THATS ALL! 😎
