cx_Freeze also includes a compiled library, cx_Freeze.util, which will only work on the version of Python (32 or 64 bit) that it's compiled for. The main important points are: - Your installation of Python is either 32 bit or 64 bit, and you need to install the version of cx_Freeze matching this. It's not necessarily the same as your OS - you can run 32 bit Python on a 64 bit system (but not vice versa). - If you use 64 bit Python and cx_Freeze, your frozen application will only work on 64 bit systems. New systems in the last few years have all been 64 bit, but older computers, e.g. ones running Windows XP, are often still 32 bit. If a significant chunk of your target audience is still on XP, make sure to use 32-bit versions of Python, cx_Freeze, and any compiled libraries you're using. (Although XP is now officially out of support, so hopefully people are moving away from it) Thomas
