How to convert .py to .exe?

I have a working python script. I have tried converting it to .exe with Pyinstaller using all options i.e. --onefile, --onedir etc. It creates an exe file though but it doesn't run. When I run it, it just pops up and goes. 

pyinstaller --onefile myscript.py
pyinstaller --onedir myscript.py
pyinstaller myscript.py

Nothing seems to be working for me. Please help! This is the error I get. Seems as if some libraries couldn't be imported

In your cmd window enter 'pip install py2exe'.

Enter this in Python:

print("Hello There!")

from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

setup(
console=['myscript.py'],
options = {
              'py2exe' : {
                      'packages' : ['pandas']
                      }
              }
)

Compile your project by tapping the F5 key.

In my example, I have this:

"C:\Users\Excel\.spyder-py3\untitled1.py"

It's not a clever name, but it serves the purpose.

In your cmd prompt, enter this: "C:\Users\Excel\.spyder-py3\untitled1.py"

You will immediately see the results in the same cmd window, and that's your validation that your program ran!

See the link below for more info.
