Upon launch, XTTS deletes old model files and redownloads the same file.

Every time XTTS is launched now it deletes the contents of AppData\Local\tts\tts_models and redownloads the 1.8 gb file. I have confirmed this is happening with my friend too.

This looks related: coqui-ai/TTS#3264

Following steps solved it for me:

  1. Delete contents of %LOCALAPPDATA%\tts\tts_models--multilingual--multi-dataset--xtts_v2
  2. Open a command prompt in your text gen web Ui dir and run cmd_windows.bat which will put you in the python environment then run pip install git+https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS to install TTS from github - this ended up uninstalling an older version and installing a newer one.
  3. Run text gen UI as normal and it should now re-download the model but now hopefully for the last time.

What about Linux users?
