The models created from the model tab is not shown even if I login as an admin.

This issues seem to be specific to my Windows 11 laptop (it works fine on my Macbook Pro M3).

The raw model from LM Studio openai api itself is working fine as shown in the screen recording below.

Could you please kindly advise how to resolve this issue?

I used pip install open-webui. Tried with both pipx and conda env.

You should use OpenAI Connections from Admin Settings instead of Direct Connections
