Description

Hey, I recently have the problem that ControlNet seems to access the wrong path and always looks in the Deforum folder.
Here is the full error code:
**Failed to import controlnet! The exact error is [WinError 3] The system cannot find the specified path: 'E:\AI\SUPER SD 2.0\stable-diffusion-webui\extensions\deforum-for-automatic1111-webui\models'. Deforum support for ControlNet will not be activated.**
I don't know if this is the reason, or it has another reason, why ControlNet doesn't work for me in the SD-UI.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the reported Windows path and the full [WinError 3] message, then investigate how ControlNet discovers the Deforum extension's models directory. Reproduce the import failure in the stated Stable Diffusion WebUI and verify that the import succeeds without looking in an invalid path.
