Failing to create a .exe file with Python and PyQt5

I`m trying to make an executable from my python script called ProyectoNew.py. It works with a folder called "Imagenes" and another called "ModulosExternos", and a PyQT5's .ui file like this:

enter image description here

Here`s the Code posted in GitHub: https://github.com/TheFlosh/ProyectoSoftware.git

I`ve tried to use Pyinstaller, Py2Exe and CXFreeze but it didn't worked. Using each one of these modules to create a .exe file I've got the same result when I tried to execute it in another PC, as shown here:

LEFT: What I get after using pyinstaller - Right: What I need to show

On the LEFT of the picture you can see what I get after using pyinstaller (or Py2Exe), on the right you can see what I need to show.

Here are the modules that I use in my code ("ModulosExternos" is the folder where I put some particular modules that my code needs):

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
import sys
import pyttsx3
from pyttsx3.drivers import sapi5   
import PyQt5                        
import sip                          
import os                          
from ModulosExternos import Boton_1,Boton_2,Boton_3,Boton_4,Boton_Final,Listas_Pictogramas, Frases_Completas

And here is the last part of it, to instantiate the GUI:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    GUI = ProyectoNew()
    GUI.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec())

I`ve read a lot of posts on the internet that recommended creating Setup.Py file to initiate the process of creating an executable file of my project. These are some examples of what I did with two of them:

With CX_Freeze:

import sys
import os
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable

files = ['icono.ico','/Imagenes']

target = Executable(
    script = "/ProyectoNew.py",
    base = 'Win32GUI',
    )

#Setup 
setup(
    name = "Proyect2",
    version = "1.6",
    description = "Software",
    author = "----",
    options = {'build_exe': {'include_files' : files}},
    executables = [target]
    )

With Py2Exe:

from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable

setup(name = "Proyect2",
    version="1.0",
    description = "Software",
    executables = [Executable("ProyectoNew.py")],)

With Pyinstaller I typed: python --nowindowed --onefile ProyectoNew.py but I constantly got the same result as shown before.

I think that when I execute Pyinstaller, the .exe file doesn`t load the modules and the images that I use. What am I missing while creating the file? What do I need to do to execute the .exe file in another PC?.

I would prefer to use pyinstaller,but using any one of these will help me.

What's is wrong with that? You get some kind of error? Please edit your question with that.

With pyinstaller and this command, you should be able easily build an executable file:

pyinstaller [FILE].py -w -F

This command generate a /dist folder with the neccesary files and .exe file to run

*-w param is for do not provide a console window for standard i/o

*-F param is for one-file bundled executable You can check more params here

PD: Before, you need obviously install pyinstaller:

pip install pyinstaller
