Hello, some notes:

It would be interesting if you could give us a bit more context about what your file hierarchy is so we can answer you more accurately.
Normally, when you "import Comps 1.0" it is because the module should be installed (referenced) in: the environment variable $QML_IMPORT_PATH or in the path $QT_DIR/qml for Qt Creator projects or in $QT_DIR/../Tools/<Your Qt Design Studio Version>/qt6_design_studio_reduced_version/qml or otherwise with the call to the qmlRegisterType<> macro.

# make IDEs aware of the QML import path
set(QML_IMPORT_PATH ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/qml CACHE PATH
    "Path to the custom QML components defined by the project")

C:\Qt\6.6.2\msvc2019_64\qml\Comps


C:\Qt\Tools\QtDesignStudio-4.1.0-lts\qt6_design_studio_reduced_version\qml\Comps

qmlRegisterType<CategoryModel>("Comps", 1, 0, "CategoryModel");

When you do "import "Comps" 1.0" you are importing a relative path from the qml file where you are located.

I hope I have clarified something for you
