I've had good success with PyInstaller.

I like it better than Py2Exe - it seems to "just work" without a lot of fiddling.

I tried py2exe but the executable file has to be in a specific folder along with many other files that py2exe generates. It therefore cannot be placed in any folder.
As far as I can see cx-freeze produces a folder, not a single file.

I am looking for a way of producing a single executable file that can be run in any folder, and nothing else - that is, standalone.

    Is it possible to create a standalone executable (.EXE file) from
    a Python script?

    By 'standalone' I mean an executable file that can be placed in
    any folder and contains or finds the libraries, modules etc. that
    it depends on.
