How to Convert a Python File to .EXE

In this video I am going to show you how to convert a python script, a game or a program, into a standalone executable file that will be easy to share with your friends or customers. The procedure is very easy, so let’s start!

For this we are going to use pyinstaller. PyInstaller is a program that converts Python programs into stand-alone executables, under Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. Pyinstaller is very easy to use, and the program turns our code into a single file, which is convenient for distribution.

Hi Nick,
thanks for the video, I followed all the steps, but I am getting " PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:"
did run cmd as admin, and I have full right (full control/modify, read, write...) over the folder where my .py file is located.
any idea?
thanks

nice background man, it brings the childhood memories

[AlastairGames]

when I went to "pip install pyi" with CMD
it says "pip is not a recognized as an internal or external command..."
I think you missed some steps!

Sir how to make executable if I have some dependencies like pandas, face recognition etc ?

[QuransGems-zdjd]

'pyinstaller' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file. ! What to doo!

[bluenoob]

Nice vid i didn't think this would work but you earned a sub

[briangoodman]

Mine doesn't work. I coded a small 1 kilobyte python source code with the modules turtle, random, and time. When I follow the tutorial very carefully, it tells me that pyinstaller wasn't found. I installed pyinstaller. Do you think there is a way to fix this?

[lillii]

It gives me errors that look like this:
3407 WARNING: Library not found: could not resolve 'api-ms-win-crt'
And when I open the exe file it closes immediately

The converting steps take a long time more non stope converting time do you have a solution

[Tims_Projects]

Thankyou Nick, that was great.
Now how long have I been using windows and typed cmd after clicking the start button then navigating to the folder, OMG, slap myself on the head, typing it in the navigation bar is new to me ha-ha, thank you for that tip also.
