I have come through this issue previously and there is a solution to it. When you type this in the terminal (cmd or PowerShell):

pyinstaller --onefile -w filename.py

if you remove the

-w

so it is just

pyinstaller --onefile filename.py

then you will be able to run the exe fine

This will work 99% but if not, then there is a possibility that you have an error in your code
