               name='main')

then trying to run the executable file in target folder, I get this error:

Does anyone know how to fix this, or what might be causing it?

If it helps im using python 3.7

Edit: I tried python 3.6 and reinstalling everything, still getting the same error.

Edit 2: error log:

Answer 1

I figured out the issue, or it seems to be the issue, apparently pyinstaller didnt install all the way, when I looked at the github, I noticed pyinstaller-hooks which is what I installed, then it worked, so be sure to:

pip install pyinstaller-hooks

I hope this helps!
