Hi, thanks for reaching out! There was a broken update. To fix that, download InvokeAI again, move and move your output folder to the new installation.
I'm currently checking if the update script is okay to use again. :) Sorry for the trouble!
I'm not sure at this point as it has been a while. It was definitely after updating but can't say if it was like that from the first attempts. It's still happening and I have to launch from the .exe file to get it to launch. Trying to launch it from itch app, doesn't work 9/10 times for me now.
