Hmm it seems that my idea that I can see everyting in windows 7 was incorrect. Win 7 indeed hides multiple directories, one is AppData :-/ Well, now that I can actually see the directory pyinstaller is using I can go further with my quest to get a working exe.

I can't imagine windows can hide the file when using totalcommander. But thank you for your efforts.
