Known Issues

- PC restart may be needed after installation of AI Playground, otherwise can result in poor performance or functionality issues
- Performance degradation can happen after running a few different high memory models. Restarting backends through Backend Installation Manager will restore performance
- Network firewalls and protected networks can interrupt or block the installation process. Install using an open network.
- Alternate Python and Git installations on the PC may conflict with installation.
- VC++ may be detected and not installed by the installer but may be required to be installed if out of date for the hardware.
