Firstly i wonder that you don't get articles related to to this in your Google search.

First Install pyinstaller by running this command

pip install pyinstaller

For Additional Help https://pyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html

Open command prompt, Now navigate to the directory in which your python file (using the cd command ) is located then enter the code

pyinstaller --onefile .py

This will create a standalone executable file (That i expect you are asking). Below is the link to a stackoverflow question you missed to read. Edit : in the same directory a folder name dist will get created which have your single executable.

How can I convert a .py to .exe for Python?
