How to Convert a Python file into an EXE file

You’ve built that Python app, and now your boss is very impressed with it.  So they ask you to convert it into a Windows EXE file so others can use it with ease.  Huh?

Fortunately, that’s an easy task using Windows 11 with a program called auto py to exe.  The program is installed and executed by using the Windows Terminal.  If you don’t know anything about this, don’t worry.  If your Systems Administrator has setup the Python Environment correctly, this should be a piece of cake.  But, as always, get permission to install this program on the machine.

Here’s how to install and use auto py to exe:

1. Go into Windows Terminal.
2. At the Terminal Prompt, type: pip install auto-py-to-exe
3. If all goes well, the installation should begin.  (If it doesn’t, contact your System’s Administrator).
4. You’ll see the installation files being downloaded and installed.
5. When the installation has completed, you should see the Terminal Prompt again.
6. That’s it.

The program is executed via the Terminal by typing: auto-py-to-exe

The program should be self-explantory.  If you need assistance, search Google.com.
