Users shouldn't set the Python binary path if Python is installed with default install methods listed in the document: https://xxyzz.github.io/WordDumb/installation.html

Maybe the Python path you're using is not a valid path? You could try to remove that path from the plugin settings.

Thank you. That progressed things somewhat. I installed the latest Python (3.12.4) now and left everything as it is. However, I am getting stuck on this step now:

"OSError: [WinError 127] The specified procedure could not be found. Error loading "C:\Users\dtale\AppData\Roaming\calibre\plugins\wo rddumb-libs-py3.12\torch\lib\cufftw64_11.dll" or one of its dependencies."

You may need to downgrade cuda, pytrorch only supports cuda 12.1 and 11.8: https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/

Or you could disable the "use GPU" option.

Thank you so much. That did it. So grateful. BTW, is the quality the same WITH and WITHOUT using Cuda? If so, what's the purpose of having Cuda's option in there?

spaCy provides transformer models claim better NER performance so I added them, but now I'm kind regret doing this because most bug reports are CUDA dependencies issues.

FWIW, questionable.
