*.py script with tkinterdnd2 module doesn`t compile to an executable file

Question

I made an app that uses tkinter and tkinterdnd moudles. It works completely fine when I launch it as a script, however when I try to make and executable file from it and laucnh it, foloowing error ocures:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "TkinterDnD2\TkinterDnD.py", line 53, in _require
_tkinter.TclError: can't find package tkdnd

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "IxcomGUI.py", line 128, in <module>
  File "IxcomGUI.py", line 11, in __init__
  File "TkinterDnD2\TkinterDnD.py", line 285, in __init__
  File "TkinterDnD2\TkinterDnD.py", line 55, in _require
RuntimeError: Unable to load tkdnd library.
[14512] Failed to execute script 'IxcomGUI' due to unhandled exception!

I tried following:

1. Installed tkinterdnd2 with pip install and built with pyinstaller myscript.py.
2. Manually installed tkinterdnd2 module as shown in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIy0QjwQBl0&t=605s&ab_channel=RamonWilliams and built with pyinstaller myscript.py
3. Repeated previous step, but added this thing https://github.com/pmgagne/tkinterdnd2/blob/master/hook-tkinterdnd2.py
4. Tried to implicitly tell pyinstaller path to tkdnd module with specifying path to the module with --paths flag.

All this attempts led to error bellow. Does anyone know some kind of solution?

Answer 1

Apparently it was unnexpectedly easy to fix this issue. All you need to is to get to the <YourPath>\Python39\tcl directory and find tkdnd2.8 directory, and move it to the tcl8.6 directory. I have also renamed it to just tkdnd, however I don't know whether it's necessary.
