Stops working after running for a while (.exe) #2

Open NeverDecaf opened 4 years ago

NeverDecaf commented 4 years ago

After running for ~a few days windows will delete the temp files created by pyinstaller. This breaks parts of the program (namely cacert.pem causing downloads to fail). This could be fixed by using the --runtime-tmpdir to extract temp files to a directory that windows will not delete. However, this option is currently broken and awaiting a PR merge. Once pyinstaller is updated this can be fixed and closed. In the meantime a temporary fix is to simply close and re-open the exe.

the relevant issue is #4579 and PR #4720 (pyinstaller 4.2 milestone)
