For me, the attached video is 25secs of plain black. Would you be able to check if this issue still occurs with custom nodes disabled?

You can test this by simply starting ComfyUI with this command line switch:

--disable-all-custom-nodes

If that resolves the issue, you should be able to find the problematic extension using the bisect custom nodes feature of comfy-cli.

The video is playing fine for me.
I have seen such a behavior when editing a large workflow, and using constantly the ctrl+z shortcut. Eventually comfyUI will restore back to a really early action and I've seen exactly what you reported here; deleting a node, saving, and the loading the workflow > the saved changes were not there.
Normally, rebooting comfy resolves it. IMO the problem lies in using ctrl+z too many times. (which should not be a problem, but it used to be, I don't know if this was resolved in the newer versions)

The video is playing fine for me.视频对我来说播放正常。 I have seen such a behavior when editing a large workflow, and using constantly the ctrl+z shortcut. Eventually comfyUI will restore back to a really early action and I've seen exactly what you reported here; deleting a node, saving, and the loading the workflow > the saved changes were not there.我在编辑大型工作流并不断使用 ctrl+z 快捷键时看到了这种行为。最终，comfyUI 将恢复到真正早期的行动，我已经看到了你在这里报告的内容;删除节点、保存和加载工作流 > 保存的更改不存在。 Normally, rebooting comfy resolves it. IMO the problem lies in using ctrl+z too many times. (which should not be a problem, but it used to be, I don't know if this was resolved in the newer versions)通常，重新启动 comfy 可以解决它。IMO 问题在于使用 ctrl+z 的次数太多。（这应该不是问题，但曾经是，我不知道这在新版本中是否解决了）

Rebooting didn't work, I was opening a workflow json I attached in the switchboard at any time of day with the same effect, ‘Flux_CN.json’, you can try it.

You can use the ‘Flux_CN.json’ I've attached to remove a couple of controlnet associated nodes below, then save it and re-open it and you'll see it will revert.
Also I don't think you should have to exclude the nodes because the workflow store is actually a json and it should have the highest readable permissions to read all the node contents of the page. Since the interface can see the effect, the saved json content should also have to correspond to the page.

You can delete the nodes as shown in my diagram, then save it and reopen it again.
