# Highres Fix

If you feel like just using the upscalers aren't getting enough detail at higher resolution, you can always try using the Highres Fix.

To start using HIghres Fix go into the setting tab and turn on the this option. Make sure to click save settings.

Now when you generate an image at 1024x1024 highres fix will activate.\
It will work on any resolution equal to or greater than the sum of those dimensions

What this does is generate the image at 768x768 and then begins to upscale it in stages, adding a pass of img2img at each step to add in more details until it eventually reaches the desired resolution.

Be careful going too large if you have a GPU with 8GB of VRAM or less.\
Currently it may fail, but not until the final steps.

If higher resolutions are desired you can use a regular upscaler.\
2x upscale will keep most of the details of your highres fix image.

If you want to get even more details, now would be a good time to look into using [The Paint Tab](/tutorials/resources/extra-features-tutorials/the-paint-tab.md)
