Stable Diffusion - Quick Start Guide
A quick start guide for Stable Diffusion with
the AUTOMATIC1111 WebUI
for Windows.
This is a simple and easy way to get started with Stable Diffusion, a free and powerful AI tool.

1. Download and install Python 3.10.x into the `src\py\` folder.
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.6/python-3.10.6-amd64.exe
Choose custom installation, and install to the `src\py\` folder. During
installation make sure to uncheck the "Install launcher for all users"
option. You can also use newer versions of Python, depending on the project
requirements.
2. Download AUTOMATIC1111 WebUI
https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
Extract the zip file contents into the `src\ui\` folder.
3. Download and install model(s). A example below:
- Realistic Vision V5.1 (realistic images, and more)
https://huggingface.co/SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE/tree/main
Download and move the `Realistic_Vision_V5.1.safetensors` file into:
`src\ui\models\Stable-diffusion\`
Note: Only use the .safetensors file, not the .ckpt file. This is a newer,
safer format.
That's it! You are now ready to run the WebUI.
