| Here you can restart the UI with new settings. | |
| * **Available extensions**: shows a list of extensions available under `text-generation-webui/extensions`. | |
| * **Boolean command-line flags**: shows command-line flags of bool (true/false) type. | |
| After selecting your desired flags and extensions, you can restart the UI by clicking on **Apply flags/extensions and restart**. | |
| ## Install or update an extension | |
| In this field, you can enter the GitHub URL for an extension and press enter to either install it (i.e. cloning it into `text-generation-webui/extensions`) or update it with `git pull` in case it is already cloned. | |
| Note that some extensions may include additional Python requirements. In this case, to install those you have to run the command | |
| ``` | |
| pip install -r extensions/extension-name/requirements.txt | |
| ``` | |
| or | |
| ``` | |
| pip install -r extensions\extension-name\requirements.txt | |
| ``` | |
| if you are on Windows. | |
| If you used the one-click installer, this command should be executed in the terminal window that appears when you run the "cmd_" script for your OS. | |
| ## Saving UI defaults | |
| The **Save UI defaults to settings.yaml** button gathers the visible values in the UI and saves them to settings.yaml so that your settings will persist across multiple restarts of the UI. | |
| Note that preset parameters like temperature are not individually saved, so you need to first save your preset and select it in the preset menu before saving the defaults. | |
