Im using Python 3.6 and I wrote a script in which the user enters data through tkinter GUI and it gets then printed along with some extra text into a WORD doc.
All works fine in my Wing IDE but once it comes to converting it to .exe it either shows mistakes when I use py2exe / cx_Freeze or just opens and instantly closes the window when I convert it with pyinstaller.
When I try to convert the script containing standad libraries and tkinter it works perfectly fine. But once I include docx it just doesnt want to work for some reason. As I am aware now the Pyinstaller does not want to work with docx. Is there any other ways I can convert my script containing docx into .exe ?
Also, Im pretty new to programming. Thanks in advance.
Here's a short example:
from tkinter import *
from docx import Document
from docx.shared import Inches
document = Document('CRS-example.docx')
def Generate(event):
document.add_paragraph('Hello World')
document.save('TESTING.docx')
root = Tk()
frame = Frame(root)
frame.pack()
generate = Button(frame, text = 'Generate')
generate.bind('<Button-1>', Generate)
generate.pack()
root.mainloop()
On top of that the cx_Freeze gives me such list of mistakes:

This is also my cx_Freeze setup.py in which I am getting above errors:

if sys.platform == "win32":
