Actually I do not add any files to the exe, I simple run the *pyinstaller -F program.py* Then place all the files in the dist directory. This has worked for me for very long. I make sure that all the kv files are there in the dist directory.
Here is my data from the log file: [INFO ] Logger: Record log in C:\Users\aftab\.kivy\logs\kivy_24-05-09_99.txt [INFO ] deps: Successfully imported "kivy_deps.gstreamer" 0.3.3 [INFO ] deps: Successfully imported "kivy_deps.angle" 0.4.0 [INFO ] deps: Successfully imported "kivy_deps.glew" 0.3.1 [INFO ] deps: Successfully imported "kivy_deps.sdl2" 0.7.0 [INFO ] Kivy: v2.3.0 [INFO ] Kivy: Installed at "D:\COBRA_CRS_Redesign\crs\kivy_venvir\Lib\site-packages\kivy\__init__.py" [INFO ] Python: v3.12.0 (tags/v3.12.0:0fb18b0, Oct 2 2023, 13:03:39) [MSC v.1935 64 bit (AMD64)] [INFO ] Python: Interpreter at "D:\COBRA_CRS_Redesign\crs\kivy_venvir\Scripts\python.exe" [INFO ] Logger: Purge log fired.
