[FIXED] Pyinstaller WARNING:lib not found: api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll dependency of c:\users\ymzym\appdata\local\programs\python\python39-32\python39.dll

Issue

I was running pyinstaller --onedir --icon="Ico.ico Encrypt.py command but it wasn't successful. I have to convert my Python project to 32-bit exe file because I want to make my program work with Windows XP SP3 too so I have Python 3.9.3 (32-bit). I tried repairing Python but it makes no sense. Can anyone help me?

Here is the log of pyinstaller: It stops the task and returns to cmd after 14546 INFO: Analyzing C:\Users\ymzym\PyCharmProjects\YLMZ 3.0\Encrypt.py

Solution

I have solved the problem by completely uninstalling Python 3.9 32-bit and installing Python 3.9 64-bit, after that installing Python 3.9 32-bit again.
