api-ms-win-crt-multibyte-l1-1-0.dll not found about fbs

[fredrikaverpil]

Can we just print the error instead of halting?

		try:
			copy(join(r'c:\Windows\System32', dll), path('${freeze_dir}'))
		except FileNotFoundError as error:
			print('Could not copy file:', error)

By "I can see that the file indeed exists within the target\Tutorial folder." you mean that target\Tutorial\api-ms-win-crt-multibyte-l1-1-0.dll exists for you even though you apparently don't have it in C:\Windows\System32?

The file is needed to avoid fman-users/fman/issues/126 on some users' system.

Correct. It exists in the target\Tutorial folder.

The copy command fails as the file is not found in C:\Windows\System32, hence the error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:\\Windows\\System32\\api-ms-win-crt-multibyte-l1-1-0.dll'

Something else is copying that file into the target dir...?

PyInstaller probably! I just committed 30d284c. Can you let me know whether it fixes the problem?

Yes, thanks - works great!

Cool!
