Error message using pyinstaller

I am trying to convert a script into an exe using pyinstaller and Python3.70 (on Windows 10)

When I run the command

pyinstaller --onefile myfile.py

The program runs fine, except some warnings about libcrypto etc..

But when I try to run the exe file found in the dist folder I get this error message:

Fatal Python error: initfsencoding: unable to load the file system codec
zipimport.ZipImportError: can't find module 'encodings'

Try down-grading to Python 3.6, it seems there are issues with Pyinstaller and Python 3.7 that have not yet been addressed. As per Pyinstaller:

PyInstaller works with Python 2.7 and 3.3—3.6
