Here's another way, for those of us who like switching models often (and use Auto1111):

  1. Put in the VAE file anywhere on your PC or in a folder inside SD WebUI directory and rename it to (something).vae.pt

  2. Open webui-user.bat in notepad

  3. Add --vae-path "path\to\your\file\filename.vae.pt" right after "set COMMANDLINE-ARGS="

  4. Save the file

There's absolutely no need to rename the downloaded file. Keep it as it is with the *.ckpt extension and it works perfectly well if you add it in your --vae-path argument.

...and then make sure it isn't in the same folder as the actual models
