Manager button missing in the latest version on MAC M chip

Help, I couldn't find the manager button after update comfyui to 0.6.1

At the moment, they have not yet implemented it in normal installations (portable/git), it's only present in Desktop app.

We need to wait for the next stable frontend release.

I'm not sure if this is true. Using the Desktop app on M3 Pro there is no "Manager" button as well.
Also pressing the install all custom nodes does nothing. It installs some or all the nodes, but when restarting ComfyUI the workflows still have problems.

@zacharisharris Check this: https://blog.comfy.org/p/meet-the-new-comfyui-manager

On Desktop app there should be this little button to open the new Manager:

The button will be present in the next 1.35 frontend release for portable/git installations:

@pnxxwzh I just realized that you already have it (and you are on Desktop app lol):

No, that is not the usual https://github.com/ltdrdata/ComfyUI-Manager

That is the useless original manager that never worked properly.

Is says "Install" but I have already tried to install the ComfyUI-Manager and restarted the ComfyUI, and so it is still unable to install it.

@Flexue On Desktop they implemented the new Manager: https://blog.comfy.org/p/meet-the-new-comfyui-manager

But yeah, currently there are some problems. It doesn't work on portable as well: #2407

Maybe you can try enabling the legacy menu and see if it can install/update custom nodes: #2407 (comment)

This is not new at all. It's been in ComfyUI for quite some time, but it never worked when I tried to use it.

Doesn't work. I'm using the directory that opens when you choose Help > Custom Nodes and it doesn't install. I also tried the batch file just to make sure I had the dependencies installed (even though I have the Desktop version and you supposedly don't have to do that). No button. As I said, disabling New Menus and Nodes 2.0 makes no difference, still no Manager button.

Yeah the weird official "ComfyUI-Manager" does not work for me either. Well, it does install some stuff, but it doesn't seem to automatically detect and install missing nodes (although with this newest ComfyUI it does say that's what it's doing--detecting and installing--but nothing happens despite the notice that "missing nodes have been installed" or something like that).
