Problems on Intel NPU and Foundry Local

Hi there!
I'm trying to use Intel NPU and Foundry Local
My NPU has already installed driver successfully.

foundry model run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B-openvino-npu:1

---

I tried to run it, but

C:\Users\(hidden)\.foundry>foundry model run DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B-openvino-npu:1
Exception: ❌ Model <DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B-openvino-npu:1> was not found in the catalog or local cache.
🔍 Did you mean: `foundry model run deepseek-r1-distill-qwen-7b-generic-gpu:3`?
👉 Try `foundry model list` to see available models.
👉 Or check for typos in the model name.

Too bad!

Another problem (maybe the same problem?) is
I tried to show out if I can list out all the NPU-supported models
But

C:\Users\(hidden)\.foundry>foundry model list --filter device=NPU
🕚 Downloading complete!...
Failed to download or register the following EPs: OpenVINOExecutionProvider. Will try installing again later.

The problem is: Failed to download or register the following EPs

I don't know if it's a problem or I did something wrong. So I didn't submit this at issue.
If you know what can I do, comment please. Very THANK YOU!

Environment

CPU = Intel Core Ultra 7 155H
Mem = 32GB
NPU = Intel AI Boost
GPU = Intel Arc Graphics
System = Windows 11 24H2
Region=HongKong,China
I had download an OpenVINO toolkit from Intel and added lib&release&debug folders in it to Path.

My computer supports python.
OpenVINO of Python3.12.8 can detect NPU correctly.
