DLL not Found

See original GitHub issue

I have used auto-py-to-exe several time in the past with great results, however been having this issue for the last couple of days and I have not been able to fix it/found a fix I have tried the 3 methods of installation (PyPI, Install GitHub, and Running Locally) both in a VirtualEnv and Global, however I keep getting the same error.

I have also changed my Python version, started with 3.11 and went all the way to 3.8.10, updated my OS, but ran out of luck

py -m auto_py_to_exe

@kurte32, I had this same exception happen to me on both a Windows 10 and Windows 11 VM. Are you sure you have the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages installed? This fixed the problem for me.

I downloaded version 14 from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=48145
