Thanks for sharing this! But I have some doubts about hidden installation procedures. It imports all functions from one_click (from one_click import *), which points to a compiled file. It then runs functions like install_webui and install_extra_packages. At least suspicious.

> Windows Defender may give a warning about untrusted application and disallow further execution of Voice-Pro. If SmartScreen security level is set to "Warn", just click "More info" and then click "Run anyway". If SmartScreen is set to level "Block" there will be no button to run the installation. In this case, open the properties of the start.bat file, and check "Unblock", apply the change and run the start.bat again.

clear as day, do not trust this code

Exactly, and this isn't adding anything significant from what I can see that isn't already achieved in much more clear and openly presented repositories. Take coqui for example. Cloning as as easy as recording an example of your voice and using

  ```python
  from TTS.api import TTS
  tts = TTS("tts_models/multilingual/multi-dataset/xtts_v2", gpu=True)
  
  # generate speech by cloning a voice using default settings
  tts.tts_to_file(text="It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it I'm not going to be silent.",
                  file_path="output.wav",
                  speaker_wav="/path/to/target/  speaker.wav",
                  language="en")
  ```

Perhaps I'm paranoid but this has multiple red flags that make hesitate to install - even the "too good to be true" aspect of such comprehensive features makes me wonder (which is probably irrational and taking it a bit too far!)

I have resorted to using separate physical computers + vlan network separation when exploring untrusted AI workloads. Yes, it costs, but so does a breach.

Thanks for raising this aspect.

Btw https://github.com/haimgel/display-switch helps a lot.

Try recording the installation process with a camera. The entire installation process is displayed in the Windows command. It's just installing Python packages and downloading the AI model and audio files. That's all.

The file I mentioned is just the begining... there is a folder full of .dll files, renamed to .pyd. I understand that this is the proprietary part, that limits usage for 30 minutes, but I think it is too closed for a MIT license.

Pretty easy for a script to not print everything it does at the command line. You have to inspect the code if you want to be sure.
