This is an issue with pip/python/windows, not ComfyUI

I recommend that move C:\Users\Admin\Documents\Stable diffusion\ComfyUI to C:\ComfyUI
If the path contains blanks or special characters, it often causes problems. In particular, on Windows, the length of the path frequently also causes issues.

And it seems that you are using the system Python, which you shouldn't do. Set up a venv or use a portable version instead.
