Description

### Prerequisites

- [x] I am running the latest version of ComfyUI
- [x] I have custom nodes enabled

### What happened?

Was running fine and rebooted Comfy. The .bat is pulling the latest FE. v1.40.1, which was just released 2 hours ago.

On my WF, a number of Nodes came up outlined in Red. Which is typ not installed. But checked and all the Nodes are installed.

Nodes that came up missing were Comfy-Core, Ollama Generate Adv (it's deprecated, but doesn't apply here), Comfy_Image-Saver and a couple others.

I know it's a FE bug ... because I rolled back, all the way to v1.38.4, and NOW everything is working fine.

It was easy to roll back, because this wasn't the 1st time, and had a pre-built .bat file with the v1.38.4 argument.

!!! Please note - this is the 4th or 5th time that the FE has screwed up in the last 2 months. I use Comfy daily and have used since inception. This is trending in the wrong direction. The FE is becoming occasionally unreliable and I'm leary of using the: --front-end-version Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend@latest argument.

Getting to be a rule of thumb ....wait 2 weeks after an FE update for a newer version.

P.S. Before rolling back the FE, tried a full Comfy update & dependencies (from external .bat and from within the Manager, both). No impact. Solved with a FE rollback. Simple .... but not a great track record !

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Reboot Comfy uses the Latest FE
2. See the Nodes outlined in Red
3. Reboot Comfy with an older FE

Pretty black & white !
