Very helpful, concise and presented tutorial. One bit of feedback from me: It would have been very helpful to see your raw python script code. Even though I can tell the script is a simple print script, not knowing if you had any imports or not for this particular example left me with more questions that should have been given how excellent you are at teaching. As always, very thankful for your lessons!

This is the tutorial i was looking since a long time.because i have many python project to covert exe file. I am appreciating you a lot 🙏🙏. Thanks for sharing and a deep explanation 👌👌👍👍.
PyInstaller will auto-create the executable program for the operating system you are currently on. A workaround for this if you do not have a Mac and PC would be to run python on a virtual machine whenever you need to create an additional package for another OS
Thanks. I’m gonna make some programs now and run them on my work computer to make my job easier and less tedious. Hopefully I won’t get in trouble lmao.
I’m new to python and programming in general so what’s the point of NSIS? Is it for website downloads of the program? Can’t I just email myself the .exe file and run it on another computer?
Are there extra steps involved when creating an executable with a script that interacts with additional files? I tried making an executable of your OpenCV Python video 21. The executable doesn't display any of the images.
Which additional files ? Do you mean for example photos, icons or databases files ... that are in some specific folder and you are using their paths in your code ?
Very good video! Just one question: What is the pyintaller command when one's python project consists of more than one file (.py files and maybe other kinds of files)?
Hello, first I would like to thank you for this usefull video, second I want to put my equestions regarding to this topic "Pyinstaller", I have developt a script and this script import many function from other scripts, the problems are: 1- I have to put all dependencies script together with the exe file in the same dist folder to run. 2- the exe file doesn't run without install Python in the pc that I use it to run the exe file. 3- if I use any module like PYQT5 in my script I need to installed in the python. so I see Pyinstaller generate non standalone exe file. what is the suitable method that can I use to generate 100% standalone exe file without need to install any thing else ??
Hi, when executing the instruction , i get an error: " Type error : an integer is required (got type type bytes )" my instalation is pip 19.3.1 Pyton 3.8 ?? regards
Same for me, apparently it's because pyinstaller's last update is for python 3.5. I have installed the last version with "pip install github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/archive/develop.tar.gz" via command prompt and it's working now :)
Useful information. But I didn't liked the last part (not about you), that we need to use "that" same operating system to create installer.. which is a bad idea actually (I should able to create installer for windows, linux and mac from my windows machine itself)
Hi. I created one tkinter project and converted into .exe with same method, but this file size is 320MB. Is there any way so I can reduce this file size. I am using these libraries into my project: pandas, datetime, tkinter, win32
Windows and Mac OS X specific options -c, --console, --nowindowed Open a console window for standard i/o (default). On Windows this option will have no effect if the first script is a ‘.pyw’ file. -w, --windowed, --noconsole Windows and Mac OS X: do not provide a console window for standard i/o. On Mac OS X this also triggers building an OS X .app bundle. On Windows this option will be set if the first script is a ‘.pyw’ file. This option is ignored in *NIX systems.
I have created a python exe using this process, but when I distribute it to others and try to run the exe on another pc the application does not run. It just pops up for a second and closes automatically. Is there a way to solve it?
While installing pyinstaller it is giving this error. Failed to build pyinstaller ERROR: Could not build wheels for pyinstaller which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly. How to resolve it?
It won't work if the other computer doesnt have python, because 'Handshaking' does not happen with operating system and interpreter language ,here python . Therefore to make it run on pc without python the code should be compiled , so either the python code should be compiled somehow or the code should be written in compiler language like C
Hi, I built a GUI using QT designer and using python for the backend script and calling this UI file. how we can build an executable file when i have one python and one UI file?
Sir , i have a simple kivy file i want to execute other py file via kivy and get the output on mobile in kivy gui how can i do Actually i want to make an app like qpython, pydroid to run python file via kivy interface I searched the whole internet butvi did not get the way to do this Please respond me and make a video on it please i will be very thankful to you please.....
I'm not sure I understand your question completely but if you want to create an app on your phone with Kivy you need to use their Buildozer tool and be on a Linux machine.
Hi. Can't install " pip install pyinstaller". Am having the following message:" Defaulting to user installation because normal site packages is not writeable". Can somebody explain please.
I did this nsis file (just like you, step by step), and then when I try to sent this by e-mail to my friend or when I try to open this on another computer- I have antivirus or smart screen error that "IT IS A VIRUS AND YOU CAN NOT OPEN IT!". What can I do with it? This nsis file or exe works only on my computer and no one elses...
My project is having a main.py file and it has 17 dependencies how should i make them into a one file as it is having links inside it to other files ??? I do have a database i.e. a .db file
thank you for nice tutorial. I have a question. after I run my .exe file and input some data into database, when I exit the program the data I saved is no longer.
Make sure you are saving the data into an external database and a python file does not store any information locally after being closed. You can use the --add-data or --add-binary build attribute for this: pyinstaller.org/en/stable/spec-files.html#adding-files-to-the-bundle
Hey I'm getting the "File not found" error as I have images and sounds in my python code. How do I set the file path of these images in my python code so that the executable works on any other computer?
It does not work. I tried with a simple hello world program. Even though I installed everything as described, starting pyinstaller did not work. Instead I got the error message, that the 'pyinstaller' command was not found. Is there any solution for that? Thanks in advance!

what if you need your client to install in both windows, linux and macOS. what do you do?
