Description
When downloading the IBM Granite 4.0 1B Speech model on Windows 11,
the download aborts at around 5–10% and leaves an incomplete plugin folder.
TypeWhisper then shows a persistent error pointing to a missing python.exe:
Error: C:\Users...\PluginData\com.typewhisper.granite-speech\python\python.exe
Deleting the folder and re-downloading does not fix the issue —
the error reappears immediately during the next download attempt.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open TypeWhisper → Settings → Modelle
- Under "Lokal (Granite Speech)", click IBM Granite 4.0 1B Speech to start download
- Download starts but aborts at ~5–10%
- Error appears: ...granite-speech\python\python.exe not found
- Deleting the folder com.typewhisper.granite-speech and retrying reproduces the same error
Expected Behavior
The Granite Speech plugin downloads completely including its bundled
Python runtime, and loads without errors.
Actual Behaviour: Download aborts early. The bundled Python runtime is never fully downloaded.
TypeWhisper shows a red error on the Transcription Provider page pointing
to a missing python.exe. The error persists across restarts and re-downloads.
OS: Windows 11
Other models (Parakeet TDT, Canary) work fine.
