    Are you aware that you don't use your variable path in r"path\V1.tsv"? Does your program run if you start it as a script? Commented Oct 30, 2020 at 13:05

    Have your tried using the --onefile flag to specify that you only want 1 exe file to be created for that script. Commented Mar 29, 2022 at 20:07

Depending on what disappointed you about PyInstaller, (speed? size? too many files in directory?), you may either want to try:

  • PyInstaller's --onefile flag, which will compile everything into one .exe file but will take forever to run
  • cx_Freeze. This can generate .exe files like PyInstaller, though performance won't be much better. What I find most useful is to compile the files into an installer by calling py setup.py bdist_msi (Windows) or py setup.py bdist_dmg (Linux). People can use the installer to add the .exe to their machines. Installer-created .exe files will run very quickly.

Have your tried using the --onefile flag to specify that you only want 1 exe file to be created for that script.

For example use the cmd: pyinstaller --onefile file_name.py

If this does not help can you specify the issue that is occurring.
