| HOW TO INSTALL cuDNN (PORTABLE METHOD) | |
| ===================================== | |
| Since cuDNN requires an NVIDIA Developer login, please follow these steps: | |
| 1. Download the cuDNN ZIP for CUDA 12.x from: | |
| https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn | |
| 2. Extract the downloaded ZIP. | |
| 3. Copy the CONTENTS of the folders as follows: | |
| - Copy everything from the ZIP's 'bin' folder to: D:\code\apps\devtools\cudnn\bin | |
| - Copy everything from the ZIP's 'include' folder to: D:\code\apps\devtools\cudnn\include | |
| - Copy everything from the ZIP's 'lib/x64' folder to: D:\code\apps\devtools\cudnn\lib\x64 | |
| 4. Restart your terminal (or run activate_env.bat). | |
| WHY THIS METHOD? | |
| This keeps your C: drive clean. Our devtools environment will automatically | |
| find these files in the 'D:\code\apps\devtools\cudnn' folder and use them | |
| for PyTorch and Unreal Engine development. | |
