My computer is a Mac running OS 11.6.1 and I've created a Windows 10 virtual machine with VMware Fusion.
I've had no problems creating an .app with pyinstaller on the Mac side. I can move it to a new directory and double-click to open it. One the Windows side, I can run pyinstaller.exe fine using a "bare-bones" .spec file, where I've only attempted to change the icon. The .exe was located in a folder (having the program name) which in turn was located in dist. The original .py and .spec were located in C:\Users\MyName\Desktop Unfortunately the .exe cannot be opened when I move it to a new directory on my virtual machine. Double clicking it results in a fatal error message, "Error loading Python DLL '\\vmware -host\Shared Folders\Desktop\python39.dll '. LoadLibrary: The specified module could not be found. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something in terms of how a virtual machine works and would appreciate insights into what I'm doing wrong.
