Some sort of configuration file option, or even prompt during initial setup, for selecting where to download files would be great. Files are downloading to some default HuggingFace cache directory, which on Windows is easily missed.

I have a drive for my OS and a handful of core applications, and am constantly battling installers that like to ask what directory to install to, but choose to create new directories and bloated install scabs that aren't cleaned up. This poor small (but blazingly fast) drive is just as annoyed as I am at this archaic issue.

The temporary files created during this setup also default "somewhere", and quickly filled up the 25GB of buffer space available on this drive. Even though my environment for all the AI madness is on a 1TB drive with plenty of available space...

This resulted in a failed setup, and an hour of digging around to clean up the garbage left behind, having to reinstall TGUI, etc.

As mentioned in the README, this extension isn't in active development at the moment. I can't promise that I'll get to it in the near future, so maybe ask again in the linked fork if you'd like a more active/recent version.
