I have to compile my Python scripts into standalone Windows executables which I can give to Windows users without Python. I use PyInstaller on Windows 7 for this task. It runs without problems with Python 2.7.10 But I am not able to get it working with Python 3.5
First, I was not able to install PyInstaller at all. I got C:\Users\admin>pip install pypiwin32 Collecting pypiwin32 Downloading pypiwin32-219-cp35-none-win32.whl (7.9MB) 100% |################################| 7.9MB 61kB/s Installing collected packages: pypiwin32 Exception: (...) File "c:\program files (x86)\python 3.5\lib\shutil.py", line 115, in copyfile with open(dst, 'wb') as fdst: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'c:\\program files (x86)\\python3.5\\Lib\\site-packages\\PyWin32.chm' I found, I have to deactivate Windows UAC with: C:\Windows\System32\UserAccountControlSettings.exe Then I was able to run pip install pypiwin32 pip install pyinstaller without errors. BUT pyinstaller does not work: S:\python>pyinstaller.exe --onefile tk.py failed to create process. S:\python>pyinstaller --version failed to create process.
