No welcoming window & pulling manifest Error: pull model manifest: file does not exist

[HWiwoiiii]

What is the issue?

When I first installed the ollama, I didn't see the welcoming window pops up, just a windows notification by it says "click here to start"

Clicking that notification gives me a powershell window as shown

and when I tried to run the command to get started it gives me the error below

pulling manifest Error: pull model manifest: file does not exist

What did you expect to see?

There should be a welcoming window for me to get started

Steps to reproduce

Reinstall

Hi @HWiwoiiii, the install experience you are describing is what I expect on Windows at the moment. We don't have a welcome screen there yet.

For the ollama run problem, the issue is the name of the model you are trying to run. This should work: ollama run llama2:13b

The error message is not very obvious in this case, sorry about that. Let me know if this works for you.

Yes it works splendidly now, thank you very much @BruceMacD
