I’ll guide you through the steps to install FaceLib in ComfyUI, starting with the important installation of FilterPy. Let’s dive in!
Step 1: Install FilterPy
Before you can install FaceLib, you need to install FilterPy. This library is essential for working with image data. To install FilterPy, follow these steps:
- Open Command Prompt:
Search for “cmd” in your Windows search bar. Right-click on it and select “Run as administrator” to avoid permission issues. - Navigate to Your ComfyUI Directory:
Use the
command to change your directory to where ComfyUI is installed. For example:cd
cd F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portableInstall FilterPy:
Go to the Python Folder
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\python_embeded\Run this command to install FilterPy directly from GitHub:
python.exe -m pip install git+https://github.com/rodjjo/filterpy.gitPress Enter to execute the command. You should see a success message once the installation is complete.
Step 2: Download the FaceLib Wheel File
Now that FilterPy is installed, you can download FaceLib. Make sure to get the right wheel file for FaceLib. Save this file in the following directory:
Download Link
facelib-1.2.1-py3-none-any.whl
Save it to this Location
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\Copy the Path example
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\facexlib-0.3.0-py3-none-any.whlStep 3: Install FaceLib Using Pip
With the FaceLib wheel file saved, it’s time to install it. Follow these steps:
Go to the Python Folder
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\python_embeded\Run The Following Command
python.exe -m pip install F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\facexlib-0.3.0-py3-none-any.whlpaste the copy path after python.exe -m pip install
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\facexlib-0.3.0-py3-none-any.whlStep 4: Verify the Installation
To check that FaceLib is installed correctly, run this command:
F:\2\ComfyUI_windows_portable\python_embeded\python.exe -m pip show facexlibIf successful, you should see information about the FaceLib package, including its version and location.
Step 5: Start Using FaceLib in ComfyUI
With FaceLib installed, you’re ready to use it in your ComfyUI projects! This library offers various tools for facial recognition and manipulation, which can really enhance your AI applications.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully installed FaceLib in ComfyUI, starting with the important step of installing FilterPy first. If you have any questions or run into any issues during the installation, feel free to leave a comment below. Happy creating!

Since you’re dealing with outdated setuptools and potentially incompatible packages, it may help to update your pip and setuptools to the latest versions:
make sure backup the python folder: and try to upgrade “python.exe -m pip install –upgrade pip setuptools”
then try this
python.exe -m pip install –force-reinstall H:\sd3\python_embeded\facelib-1.2.1-py3-none-any.whl

It looks like you’ve successfully installed the filterpy library from its GitHub repository. The output indicates that all the required dependencies, including numpy, scipy, and matplotlib, are already satisfied in your Python environment
why have facexlib and facelib both referenced?
Without FilterPy, facexlib Pulid node won’t work. To run Pulid, you must have these libraries installed in your Python environment
