PyInstaller Executable Does Nothing
#1
I have read through and tried a bunch of different How-tos on using PyInstaller to turn my python script into an executable but everything I have tried has failed.

I am running Win10, using Python 3.8 and guizero I wrote a very simple GUI that shows the current Julian date. It runs as it should on my computer but I need to create an executable so I can drop it on a bunch of other mixed versions of Windows computers and I don't want to install Python in order to use.

I found PyInstaller and ran it. It created an executable but when I run it all it does is pop up a command prompt for a second then it goes away and does nothing else. It does this on any computer, including my development PC.

What could I be doing wrong?
