Edward LOWE ,
Thanks for the responses and suggestions.
I'm still having difficulties. Here's what I tried:
1. I included the icon location to the EXE as you suggested by adding the
argument
icon='\\Users\\MyName\\Desktop\\my_icon.ico',
2. Based upon the Stack Overflow post you passed along, I included the icon
in my data via
datas=[('\\Users\\MyName\\Desktop\\eeg_2022_win.ico', '.')]
3. I deleted the icon reference in BUNDLE.
This led to the error
*Unable to find "\\Users\\MyName\\Desktop\\eeg_2022_win.ico" when adding
binary and data files.*
My .spec file and .ico are located in the same directory. It's not clear to
me whether I should be using absolute or relative file paths, so I changed
datas above to
datas=[('eeg_2022_win.ico', '.')]
This led to a new error message
*Unable to open icon file \Users\MyName\Desktop\eeg_2022_win.ico*
I also tried including the icon option in BUNDLE, using both absolute and
relative file paths. This led again to the second error message immediately
above
I haven't worked with .ico file types before. To create my icon, I simply
went to an online png-to-ico convertor. Are there particular criteria the
ico must satisfy in order for pyinstaller to open it and associate it with
my .exe ?
Thanks.
