I need help in using Vosk in Windows 10. I installed python 3.8, then used the pip install vosk command. The Python installation is at C:\Users\kamal\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38 and I can see that vosk is at C:\Users\kamal\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\Lib\site-packages\vosk. Next, I cloned the vosk git at C:\Users\kamal\vosk-api (kamal is my username). Then, I downloaded the en-us model and placed it in C:\Users\kamal\vosk-api\python\example\model. Next, in cmd, I went to the C:\Users\kamal\vosk-api\python\example directory and ran the command python ./test_srt.py test.wav test.txt. I am getting the following messages:
File "./test_srt.py", line 12, in <module>
model = Model(lang="en-us")

What has to be done?
