Building 'dist\dlpreport.exe'.
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Python\\lib\\site-packages\\py2exe\\run-py3.5-win-amd64.exe'

I'm assuming this is because Py2Exe is currently built for Python 3.4 but am wondering if there is a way to force it through (without installing another Python build).

Answer 1

If those modules are not of any use for your application then just add exclude command in your setup file. It will automatically exclude those modules and stop sending warnings.

    setup(
    options={'py2exe':{'excludes':['Image','PIL._imagingagg','PyQt4',
    'PyQt5','_abcoll','_imaging_gif','_util','cffi','lxml','openpyxl.tests',
    'readline','tkinter']}},
     )
