What happened?

I use 'Beyond Compare' to backup all my S.M. packages to an external HDD. Only Invoke causes troubles here with over 1200 error messages like this one:

21/12/2024 15:23:54 Unable to copy C:\MyProg\StabilityMatrix\Data\Packages\InvokeAI\invokeai\frontend\web\node_modules.pnpm@[email protected]\node_modules@babel\runtime: Access is denied

I already asked the guys at Invoke.Ai, but they claim they have nothing to do with it and it must come from S.M.

Console output

No response

Version

v2.13.2

What Operating System are you using?

Windows

It looks like that folder is a symlink/junction. Windows sometimes has issues moving junctions between drives. Should be fine to unlink/ignore/delete that folder, doesn't seem to have any adverse effects when running InvokeAI, and should be replaced next time it updates.
