Cannot download tortoise due to this cache error

[brokenbulb8]

Cannot download tortoise due to this error. Works perfectly fine with pyttx3. Included the whole output if conda affects it by some chance.

There was a problem when trying to write in your cache folder (C:\Users\"SomeUserName"/.cache\huggingface\hub). You should set the environment variable TRANSFORMERS_CACHE to a writable directory.

I'm not entirely sure what may have occured for why your system isn't able to download from huggingface, though it shouldn't be trying to download to .cache location, it should be looking to download in the models directory for tortoise

Can you try and delete maybe the huggingface folder at the .cache directory? If you have other hugging face models in there, you might just wanna look for a folder from jbetcker and delete that in there
