Yes but you will need to modify the source and will then loose a bit of functionality. What's the difference between Firefox and chrome you desire? It is literally just app mode.
i'll just continue with chrome then lol. I really just prefer the look and feel of firefox. Plus Firefox is a little less information hungry, which i like.
You're right. Soon I might take a look at the project and look at my options for making other browsers compatible. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Unfortunately I won't be able to get the re-sized window like in Chrome but supporting other browsers is a good idea.

No. I do not want to seem rude but I do not package it for other people. I spent hours making this tool and give it away for free, you have my time. I can help with errors but you actually need to put some effort in.
1) Thank you for yout job, that is neat :) 2) The "Failed to execute script ***" issue : I've had it, and here is how I have solved it, for those you are in need. In my case it was linked to Tkinter, precisely to the fact that I have put an icon to the root window (like root.iconbitmap("path_to_the_icone.ico")). At first the path I had for the icon was relative ( the path was just "iconName.ico" because it was in the same folder as the python script), and it was causing the "Failed to execute script ***" issue. All I hav had to do to solve this is to put an absolute path instead of a relative one. So, more clearly, I went from : root.iconbitmap("iconeName.ico") => relative path => Failed to execute script *** to root.iconbitmap("C/user/[rest of the path]/iconeName.ico") => absolute path => no issue anymore. Also, in the absolute path, use / and not \ as it creates other issues. Thanks :)
os.path.join and other functions in os.path are a huge help with this. Also when using onefile mode, there is some extra wrapping steps outlined in the GUI when adding additional files.
Can anyone help? Error: tkinter not found For linux, you can install tkinter by executing: "sudo apt-get install python3-tk" (Im running on Windows 10)
I'm completely new to anything relating to programming, but I just made a simple tool that i want to convert into an exe. I followed the steps, but when i got to ' pip install -r requirements.txt ' it throws a million errors. ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: happened 4 times making an entire wall of red text Edit: wasn't window defender firewall or bitdefender. turned both off
Are you the one who made this program !!! It is a legendary program and I have been using it for a while, and thank you very much for this great service❤❤❤
I wouldnt use it cuz I forget shit easily if I dont do it very often. Anyways, mad respect to this man for his activity on the comments and all his videos helps more than the docs for newcomers xD
This doesnt work me, it says "PyInstaller not found" when I have it installed then it says use "python -m pip install PyInstaller" when I try that it says 'python' is not recognized as an interneral or external command
I thought you said you did install it? Why use "python -m pip install PyInstaller" then? At 0:23 I show you how to check if pip is setup and set it up if required (in the video linked) - using this method will also add the same path that PyInstaller is located under (after you install it)

Hey man, this is a great tool, for some reason it's not working for me to run it (I have disabled all anti-viruses and firewalls), and it just opens it up but gets stuck on initializing.
There is a link that appears at the bottom of the UI after every build, is linked in the description of this video and is in the README file in the repository; did you read this? There are debugging steps in that post that talks about how to get the actual error (what you are saying here isn't an error).
@@PyTutorials All I know is that I spent hours and hours to read though all those error and solution to just create a working .exe, and I still haven't got it. Now I am stuck to FileNotFoundError, which I guess is because I didn't put "correct" file path that pyinstaller want. I just want it to target a file in the same dir, I have tried .[filename], /[filename], [filename] and it all doesn't work. you know generating a .exe in Java/c++/basic IDE is not even a thing, just a 2 click process. Why in hell python make it so difficult?
Are you using onefile? In the UI there is a link that appears that tells you to reference files in a particular way (stackoverflow.com/questions/7674790/bundling-data-files-with-pyinstaller-onefile/13790741#13790741)
Thanks for the great video but I cant get it to run. I could open Auto exe py but could not exe a py file. Error code: File "C:\Users\micha\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\site-packages\win32ctypes\pywin32\pywintypes.py", line 37, in pywin32error raise error(exception.winerror, exception.function, exception.strerror) win32ctypes.pywin32.pywintypes.error: (1920, 'LoadLibraryEx', 'The file cannot be accessed by the system') Not to sure what I did wrong but im still new to coding and would love this to work. Any feed BAck would be great :) Still liked cause looks like an amazing program.
There is a help post linked in the ui, description of this video, the readme of the repo and is in the pinned comment; did you read this? I talk about this under the heading "LoadLibraryEx / The file cannot be accessed by the system" nitratine.net/blog/post/issues-when-using-auto-py-to-exe/#loadlibraryex-the-file-cannot-be-accessed-by-the-system
can we just use: pip install auto-py-to-exe? and BTW, I transferred my .py file to .exe file. But when I tried to run it on a pc without having python *at all* there was an error that say, that I missing some python 37 file in my AppData. Do you know how to fix it?
Yes, in the description I encourage you to use `pip install auto-py-to-exe` and in the repo it also encourages you to use `pip install auto-py-to-exe`. When you packaged the executable, I'm going to guess (you need to verify this) that the executable also had a lot of other files around it - this executable would have been in a folder located in the output folder. If this is true, did you just copy the .exe? You can't do that, you need the whole folder, that is the whole point of the other files there. I recommend trying to run it on your machine first. If you move it to a different folder, does it still work? If you use the same method, and my assumptions of what occurred is correct, it will not run because you have not brought all the required resources with it.
@@PyTutorials Do you mean that I should transfer the _pycache_, build, my original py file and the .spec file to the second PC? (my dist contain only the .exe) If the answer is true, there is a way to combine EVERYTHING into 1 file? Thanks a lot!
No, you do not need the __pycache__ folder or the .spec file. Inside the output folder, there should be another folder that contains you exe; you need to move that whole folder (by zip if you want) as the exe needs ALL of those files in the folder by it. Look at the buttons I hit at 1:46 => "Select if you want the output to be one file or one folder."
@@PyTutorials Once again thanks for the respond. I did choose the option of one file and the output was only one exe file, that was the file I transferred. I'm trying to upgrade my auto py to EXE and Export and transfer again and I'll see what will happen. I hope that it will solve the problem. if not I don't know what to do.
You don't need to send me the code. Did you read my post on common issues with this tool - it appears clearly at the bottom of the ui after every build and is in the description of this video. Following the debugging steps in the post, what is the error you are getting?
Is your current working directory the same as the root of the repository that you downloaded/cloned? If you are, then requirements.txt will be in the working directory - you can see this by looking for requirements.txt when executing `dir` in cmd (or `ls` in a linux terminal).

Sir, I have pip installed a few libraries. I use these libraries in my program. When i convert to .exe, will a person without python and the installed libraries be able to run the program without any errors?
Yes, regarding all the libraries are added when packaging. Sometimes this does not happen automatically but there are instructions on how to figure out what to do in the links in the UI.
No, you do not have to; the tool will find the libraries most of the time. If it does not happen or something is wrong with the exe, you need to read the help post. Also, from this videos description (and the repo): "Python 3.8 is not yet supported and Python 2.7 support has been dropped"
@PyTutorials, thanks for responding so early! Okay, I tried it again, and this time, it successfully moved the project to a folder. But, when I open the EXE file, it opens, and after about fifteen seconds, it crashes. Please look in to it. Thanks. 😃
I wonder if billions of coders need py-to-exe- converter why python creators didn't add any default converter for many many years. I refuse to understand that.
I am getting the following error: OSError: [WinError 1920] The file cannot be accessed by the system During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: ... win32ctypes.pywin32.pywintypes.error: (1920, 'LoadLibraryEx', 'The file cannot be accessed by the system') Project output will not be moved to output folder
I followed all of the steps, whenever I run it I'm getting (1920,LoadLibraryEx,the file cannot be accessed by the system) error. I tried running as administrator, downgrading to python 3.7, uninstalling and reinstalling python. None of that works. Please help me fix this.

Glad you enjoyed it!
It do not work by me, it opens pycharm and a script. Can you help me? Your turtorial was amazing!!
It opens PyCharm? What were you trying to do?
btw: i like the design of that auto-py-to-exe-GUI. How was that created?
I used github.com/python-eel/Eel to get a webview that can interact with Python and then just HTML+CSS+JavaScript in that
THANK YOU DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!
1) Thank you for yout job, that is neat :)
2) The "Failed to execute script ***" issue : I've had it, and here is how I have solved it, for those you are in need.
In my case it was linked to Tkinter, precisely to the fact that I have put an icon to the root window (like root.iconbitmap("path_to_the_icone.ico")).
At first the path I had for the icon was relative ( the path was just "iconName.ico" because it was in the same folder as the python script), and it was causing the "Failed to execute script ***" issue. All I hav had to do to solve this is to put an absolute path instead of a relative one.
So, more clearly, I went from :
root.iconbitmap("iconeName.ico") => relative path => Failed to execute script ***
to
root.iconbitmap("C/user/[rest of the path]/iconeName.ico") => absolute path => no issue anymore.
Also, in the absolute path, use / and not \ as it creates other issues.
Thanks :)
os.path.join and other functions in os.path are a huge help with this. Also when using onefile mode, there is some extra wrapping steps outlined in the GUI when adding additional files.
Can anyone help?

For linux, you can install tkinter by executing: "sudo apt-get install python3-tk"

All work, Thanks for your work, bro
Thank u so much😁
You're welcome 😊
great job.
thank you!!! you save my live
you gain my very respect
This doesnt work me, it says "PyInstaller not found" when I have it installed then it says use "python -m pip install PyInstaller" when I try that it says 'python' is not recognized as an interneral or external command
I thought you said you did install it? Why use "python -m pip install PyInstaller" then? At 0:23 I show you how to check if pip is setup and set it up if required (in the video linked) - using this method will also add the same path that PyInstaller is located under (after you install it)
thanks
wow it really worked eventually im so happy thank you so much
I'm happy to hear that!

It's works! thank you
Hey man, this is a great tool, for some reason it's not working for me to run it (I have disabled all anti-viruses and firewalls), and it just opens it up but gets stuck on initializing.
Are there any messages in the terminal you started auto-py-to-exe from or in the Chrome DevTools?
Try to reinstall the module
failed to execute script that sucks
There is a link that appears at the bottom of the UI after every build, is linked in the description of this video and is in the README file in the repository; did you read this? There are debugging steps in that post that talks about how to get the actual error (what you are saying here isn't an error).
@@PyTutorials All I know is that I spent hours and hours to read though all those error and solution to just create a working .exe, and I still haven't got it.
Now I am stuck to FileNotFoundError, which I guess is because I didn't put "correct" file path that pyinstaller want. I just want it to target a file in the same dir, I have tried .[filename], /[filename], [filename] and it all doesn't work.
you know generating a .exe in Java/c++/basic IDE is not even a thing, just a 2 click process. Why in hell python make it so difficult?
Are you using onefile? In the UI there is a link that appears that tells you to reference files in a particular way (stackoverflow.com/questions/7674790/bundling-data-files-with-pyinstaller-onefile/13790741#13790741)
Thanks for the great video but I cant get it to run. I could open Auto exe py but could not exe a py file.

@@PyTutorials Thanks and no I didnt your the best :)
@@PyTutorials Now that is works why cant I run the exe? Says "Failed to exe Script"
nvm i needed it to be console mode :) thanks for the best thing ever
can we just use: pip install auto-py-to-exe?
and BTW, I transferred my .py file to .exe file. But when I tried to run it on a pc without having python *at all* there was an error that say, that I missing some python 37 file in my AppData. Do you know how to fix it?
Yes, in the description I encourage you to use `pip install auto-py-to-exe` and in the repo it also encourages you to use `pip install auto-py-to-exe`. When you packaged the executable, I'm going to guess (you need to verify this) that the executable also had a lot of other files around it - this executable would have been in a folder located in the output folder. If this is true, did you just copy the .exe? You can't do that, you need the whole folder, that is the whole point of the other files there.
I recommend trying to run it on your machine first. If you move it to a different folder, does it still work? If you use the same method, and my assumptions of what occurred is correct, it will not run because you have not brought all the required resources with it.
@@PyTutorials
Do you mean that I should transfer the _pycache_, build, my original py file and the .spec file to the second PC? (my dist contain only the .exe)
If the answer is true, there is a way to combine EVERYTHING into 1 file?
Thanks a lot!
No, you do not need the __pycache__ folder or the .spec file. Inside the output folder, there should be another folder that contains you exe; you need to move that whole folder (by zip if you want) as the exe needs ALL of those files in the folder by it.
Look at the buttons I hit at 1:46 => "Select if you want the output to be one file or one folder."
@@PyTutorials
Once again thanks for the respond.
I did choose the option of one file and the output was only one exe file, that was the file I transferred. I'm trying to upgrade my auto py to EXE and Export and transfer again and I'll see what will happen. I hope that it will solve the problem. if not I don't know what to do.
What is the actual error you are getting? You never pasted the actual error here for me to look at.
hey i have a code and i doesnt opens when converted into exe.. can u please help ill send my code to u
You don't need to send me the code. Did you read my post on common issues with this tool - it appears clearly at the bottom of the ui after every build and is in the description of this video. Following the debugging steps in the post, what is the error you are getting?

Sir you are really ultra legend
Haha, glad you found it useful!
thanks yoo
thank u, it's what i need
That's great to hear!
Sir, I have pip installed a few libraries. I use these libraries in my program. When i convert to .exe, will a person without python and the installed libraries be able to run the program without any errors?
Yes, regarding all the libraries are added when packaging. Sometimes this does not happen automatically but there are instructions on how to figure out what to do in the links in the UI.
@@PyTutorials So I must install the packages in the same address as the .py file ? Also i have pyhton 3.8 so is this the same as pyinstaller?
No, you do not have to; the tool will find the libraries most of the time. If it does not happen or something is wrong with the exe, you need to read the help post. Also, from this videos description (and the repo): "Python 3.8 is not yet supported and Python 2.7 support has been dropped"
Thanks man, May God bless you.
Glad you found it useful!
When I convert my python file, it says 'Project output will not be moved to output folder'. What should I do??
Fix the error that was output right above that message - was there one?
@PyTutorials, thanks for responding so early! Okay, I tried it again, and this time, it successfully moved the project to a folder. But, when I open the EXE file, it opens, and after about fifteen seconds, it crashes. Please look in to it. Thanks. 😃
"Please look in to it" - please look into what?
Did you read the post that was linked at the bottom of the UI after the build?
best tips ever !!
Glad you find them useful!
If i convert said .py to .exe and run it on a pc without python installed will it run?
Yes, that is the whole point of converting it to an executable.
@@PyTutorials oh nice
I tried this but it's saying 'Failed to execute the script' when i click the exe file at the end. TT
Did you follow the link that appears at the bottom of the UI at the end of each build? This tells you how to find the error. What was the error?
I wonder if billions of coders need py-to-exe- converter why python creators didn't add any default converter for many many years. I refuse to understand that.
