Whenever I try to put any .py file into pyinstaller I always get an error TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType I havent been able to find any fixes that make sense.

Ive tried reinstalling pyinstaller and different files.

I dont think there is any code problems since this occurs no matter what file I use

Expected: a compiled exe file.

Actual Result: TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType error and nothing is compiled

  • Just a suggestion, try with a simple python file first. If that is converted then some problem in your code else pyinstaller setup has some problem. Commented Jun 1, 2019 at 1:45

First, uninstall pyinstaller completely with pip uninstall pyinstaller then delete C:/Users/<Username>/AppData/Roaming/Pyinstaller directory.

Next Install pyinstaller with pip install -U pyinstaller.

If still shows the same error try to replace bindepend.py from here in <Python path>\Lib\site-packages\PyInstaller\depend directory.
