Converting Python file to EXE | Using pyinstaller Package | Computer Tips
In this video, I have shown how to convert a python (.py) file to an executable (.exe) file. The python file used in this video is our project on recovering stored wifi SSID credentials from a Windows system. So, the output is a console window where all SSID names with their credentials will be displayed, if there are any.
I have used, pyinstaller package for creating an executable file. The executable created is standalone in nature. It means that one doesn't need to have python or any other dependencies installed on a system to use the executable.
I have also covered the installation of "python" as well as "pip". A problem that may arise with respect to setting the path variable in environment variables is also looked upon.
The video is very simple and easy to follow. I hope it is able to convey the information to the viewer as easily as possible.
Thank you.
