Hello. This problem probably has been solved before and if so I apologize
for cluttering up this forum with already resolved questions. I am
relatively new to Python and have only written a few scripts. I am having
trouble creating an executable from a simple Hello Word test script using
pyinstaller. This scrip runs correctly from the command line. When I try
to build it into an executable I get the following. To get to this point I
thought I needed to install the Windows SDK and I see that pyinstaller is
looking in one of those directories when I get the warnings. The resulting
.exe in the dist folder only flashes the command prompt screen then
closes. Can you help please? Thanks in advance.
