Hi @yiyixuxu since i am new to open source, could you please suggest how can I begin solving. Thanks

Probably could just put a small note in the Installation section of the README.

Something along the lines of "use Python 3.11 and below on Windows"

Hi @canxerian, need to check with the maintainers if there is a possible solution to this or should we just add the note below.

We should really start to test diffusers more on Windows cc @DN6

This is not a problem with diffusers, pytorch it's not supported for python 3.12 on windows:

https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/

Currently, PyTorch on Windows only supports Python 3.8-3.11; Python 2.x is not supported.

Hi @patrickvonplaten, as mentioned by @asomoza should we mention in the documentation file?
Thanks

@yiyixuxu @DN6 does anybody of you have time to double check how well diffusers is supported on Windows?

[canxerian]

This could be fixed with a documentation change

Hi @canxerian, can we just add a small note on the installation page regarding this?
