On your Windows® 10 system, go to Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables. Under System Variables, Add the following as New variables with their corresponding Value as shown below:
| Variable Name | Variable Value | Notes |
| INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR | C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\openvino_2021.4.582 | Path to your OpenVINO™ toolkit installation |
| GNA_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\gna\lib | |
| INTEL_CVSDK_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR% | |
| ngraph_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\ngraph\cmake | |
| OpenCV_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\opencv\cmake | |
| OPENMP_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\omp\lib | |
| OPENVINO_LIB_PATHS | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\ngraph\lib %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\tbb\bin %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\bin\intel64\Release %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\bin\intel64\Debug %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\hddl\bin %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\omp\lib %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\gna\lib | Entries to OPENVINO_LIB_PATHS |
| InferenceEngine_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\share | |
| HDDL_INSTALL_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\hddl | |
| PYTHONPATH | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\tools\post_training_optimization_toolkit %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\open_model_zoo\tools\accuracy_checker %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\python\python3.8 %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\python\python3 %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\model_optimizer | Check your Python* version and Adjust entries |
| ROOT | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR% | |
| SCRIPT_NAME | setupvars.bat | |
| TBB_DIR | %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\tbb\cmake |
You will also need to edit the Path variable under System Variables and Add the following entries:
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\ngraph\lib |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\tbb\bin |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\bin\intel64\Release |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\bin\intel64\Debug |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\hddl\bin |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\omp\lib |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\inference_engine\external\gna\lib |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\deployment_tools\model_optimizer |
| %INTEL_OPENVINO_DIR%\opencv\bin |
| Note | This applies to 2021.4 release of OpenVINO™ toolkit. |
| A system reboot may be required for the changes to take effect. |
