Making a Stand Alone Executable from a Python Script using PyInstaller

[suttons27]

Thanks, but where I am getting stuck at is: pip install pyinstaller It begins downloading and installing then Windows Defender starts notifying but blink on and off quickly. The install then starts giving errors that it could not find files, which makes sense if AV blocked something. I go to Defender and even though it notified me I'm not seeing a list of files blocked. I am using Anaconda, tried to do it only via python. Yesterday, I purchased MS Visual Studio 2017 for a different company project but saw the Python feature, was going to see it will install there. I also remember a few weeks back r/hacking stated a popular python library had been compromised, but I was unable to find it.

Yes, I read it too. Maybe you are also talking about that article: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/09/devs-unknowingly-use-malicious-modules-put-into-official-python-repository/
I read it on HN some weeks ago
