A simple Windows launcher (FileFinderLauncher.exe) is provided. It will:
- Check if Python is installed.
- If Python is found, it runs the GUI.
- If not, it offers to open the Python download page or run a bundled installer.
- Install .NET SDK.
- Open a terminal in this folder.
- Run:
dotnet new console -n FileFinderLauncher // Replace the generated Program.cs with FileFinderLauncher.cs content dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained false - Distribute
FileFinderLauncher.exewith your Python script and (optionally) a Python installer namedpython-installer.exe.
Alternatively, use PyInstaller to bundle everything:
pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --onefile file_finder_gui.py
This creates a standalone EXE that does not require Python to be installed.
