Models folder

[LuchunPen]

Hi !
Could you explain is there oportunity to change models storage folder ?
I have small system disk with no free space. All models are downloading to Users/.cashe folder (windows) , how could I change it to local repository subfolder, for example bark/models ?

Hi, from the FAQ:

How do I specify where models are downloaded and cached?

Use the XDG_CACHE_HOME env variable to override where models are downloaded and cached (otherwise defaults to a subdirectory of ~/.cache).

I created D:\\.cache and

I set the variable like this:

os.environ["XDG_CACHE_HOME"] = "D:\\.cache"

But still, the models are getting downloaded to ~/.cache

Set it to the system environment, it works for me.
