Bark Voice Clone not installed or failed to load.
First time user.
When I launch it, I found the error that says "Bark Voice Clone not installed or failed to load."
Any ideas? Thank you so much.
Yes, it's probably one of the releases which had it broken due to 'bark' being missing, but there should be more details with the error.
However, this does not prevent the rest of the WebUI to load or function. The error only affects the module/tab.
Lastly, this is one of the default extensions, but bark itself is very old and not a recommended TTS in 2025 unless you are studying the model structure (in which case it's good because it's very simple).
Thanks for response!
It only shows this error in the console when I launch it so I don't really have other logs for you to debug. However, as you mentioned, the rest of application works flawlessly. I was wondering how to remove 'bark'? I tried to uninstalled but it still says the same error after I launch it.
what if I want to clone a voice? shouldn't I be using bark?

In 2025 the answer is generally don't use bark unless you are studying it. As a TTS it has generally been surpassed in every way. Vibevoice, Index TTS, Chatterbox etc surpass it in voice reconstruction/cloning and quality.
Ok, thanks I'm getting into this world and I'm getting up to date with this magic.
