Hi there. Thanks for the video, it's very useful and well explained. I am having the exact issue you described with antivirus progs. I'm new to Python, so forgive my noobness. If this is not the best way, what is the preferred method to share a script with somebody who does not have python installed on their system like a client or boss ?
@@neptunes9852 thanks ! Does this mean I will have to help set exception for anyone who gets the alert in their antivirus from the exe ? I might just make them all install python. 😂

Sir I am in class 11 I am learning python program But Whenever I try to open my final file(output), it opens and then closes immediately. I have given the correct file extension (.py) but it doesn't open 😢 Please tell me if you read
I 'm on Windows 11 and I've been trying to turn my python file into an executable file but every time I try to open it it just immediately closes. Am I doing something wrong or does it have to do with the Windows 11?
Try opening CMD, going to the directory the executable is in (cd C:/path/to/folder), and typing the name of the executable. It might be an error, or that you didn't make it wait at the end of execution.
the second command, pyinstaller [file name] --onefile, doesn't work for me. Even after i type the first command, pip install pyinstaller. I keep getting an error saying, "The term 'pyinstaller' is not recognized". Waht do I do?

Edit: I had to fix the path in Environment Variables
@Unkown Make sure you have the path to the scripts of your installed version of python added into Path in your system environment variables (i.e. C:\Users\...\Python\Python310\Scripts ) This solved the problem in my case

If you're having a problem with Windows Defender blocking/deleting your exe file, I found that using --onedir instead of --onefile fixed my issue. Would be nice to have it in one exe but this worked for me
How can I use the "pyinstaller .py --onefile" command? It says pyinstaller isn't recognized even tho I installed the package! (I'm using vscode anyways)
Thanks for the info BTW, sometimes python .exe files close immediately, if that happens use this command at the end of the program. input("Press enter to close program")

Did you try this with VS Code IDE? Even I got the same problem, when I executed with VS code. Again I tried with pycharm, it's working perfect. I think the isuue is with virtual environment for pyinstaller library in VS code.

User executing the program must also have Python installed. I think 99.9% must have Python installed for the program to run?
Why are python codes not made to be an exe on the desktop, rather for what?
when i type that in there is the error code that pip is not found
I have a problem. At the final stage of my program the .exe shuts down. What can I do?
In your script you need to put at the end something like
input(" ")
with this you gonna have to press a key for it to close
do i need to keep the build or i can directly take the exe and it will run on pc without python installed on it ?
this exe file will only run on computers with python, right?
thank you so much you helped out alot🥰

it is fast and simple Thank!!

Paste that into google
what python version are you using?
Today, I mostly use 3.8, in the video you should be able to see the current version in the bottom right corner of the screen.
Can you zip this and email it?
Why would it be flagged as a virus?
If you do a google on how virus cleanup programs work, you'll understand pretty fast.
I somehow just get told pyinstaller is not a cmdlet of a function. Even tho it is installed
me too it says its installed but then it says its not a cmd
