QPrinter dosn't see any printers after cx-Freeze

Working on GUI on Python (3.6.5 on win32), PyQt5 (5.10.1), use cx_Freeze (5.1.1).
There is function to use printers.
py :
def goPrinter(self):
print("___goPrinter")
printer = QtPrintSupport.QPrinter()
print(printer)
print(printer.printerName())
print(QtPrintSupport.QPrinterInfo.availablePrinterNames())
print("return")
When I run py - script, printer works fine.
cmd:
-__goPrinter
-PyQt5.QtPrintSupport.QPrinter object at 0x02FF1EBO>
-Microsoft XPS Document Writer
-['Microsoft XPS Document Writer', 'FAX']
-return
When I run exe file (after cx-Freeze), any printers are invisable. Printing doesn't work.
cmd:
-__goPrinter
-PyQt5.QtPrintSupport.QPrinter object at 0x02BB23B0>
-
-[]
-return

python - cx_freeze - Error about external module transifex.api

This is my cx_freeze setup.py file, with all the modules that I need:

When I build exe and run the main .exe file I get this error:
If you need any other code, just ask me! (See also previous posts for some snippets)
Thanks

Solved by myself removing the includes list and adding "idna" in the packages list.
Code:
import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
import os
os.environ['TCL_LIBRARY'] = "C:\\Users\Maicol\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\\Python36\\tcl\\tcl8.6"
os.environ['TK_LIBRARY'] = "C:\\Users\Maicol\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\\Python36\\tcl\\tk8.6"
# Dependencies are automatically detected, but it might need fine tuning.

Am having problems using cx_freeze

First of all, the technical stuff:
Python : 3.3
cx_freeze : 4.3.2
I have looked through several setups, but accomplished nothing. So far I only get a very quickly closing Python Command Line, and sigh, no exe.
The setup.py:
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
executables = [
Executable("Swiss Rounds.py", appendScriptToExe=True, appendScriptToLibrary=False)
]
buildOptions = dict(
create_shared_zip = False)
setup(
name = "hello",
version = "0.1",
description = "the typical 'Hello, world!' script",
options = dict(build_exe = buildOptions),
executables = executables)
Thank you people!

It looks like you forgot the base for your executable, so cx freeze doesn't know how to make the exe. This is how I structure my setup.py file. This setup will put the exe in a different folder if it is 32 bit.
import os, sys, platform
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
targetDir = "./build/"
build_exe_options = {
"icon": "/assets/images/icon.ico",
"build_exe": "/build/",
"packages": [],
"includes": ["re", "os", "atexit"],
"include_files": ["/assets/"],
"excludes": ["tkinter", "ttk", "socket", "doctest", "pdb", "unittest", "difflib",
"_bz2", "_hashlib", "_lzma", "_socket"],
"optimize": True,
"compressed": True,
}
is32bit = platform.architecture()[0] == '32bit'
if is32bit:
targetDir = "./buildX86/"
build_exe_options["build_exe"] = targetDir
# end
base = None
if sys.platform == "win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
# end
setup( name = "MyProgram",
version = "0.1",
description = "My program example",
options = {"build_exe": build_exe_options},
executables = [ Executable("/myprogram.py",
targetName="MyProgram.exe",
targetDir=targetDir,
base=base) ]
)
Run:
python setup.py build

Set an icon for a .exe file

I've made a .exe file of a game I made in Python, but I'm not sure how to make that exe file have an icon, because it looks dull and boring. I want to somehow make the icon be a picture of an asteroid let's say, because I made the game asteroids. I used cx_freeze to compile it.

Add it to the options in your setup.py file:
setup(
...
options={
"build_exe": {
"icon": "path/to/icon.ico"
}
}
)

This is easier to understand!
import cx_Freeze
import sys
base = None
if sys.platform == 'win32':
base = "Win32GUI"
executables = [cx_Freeze.Executable("example.pyw", base=base)]
cx_Freeze.setup(
name = "SeaofBTC-Client",
options = {"build_exe": {"packages":["tkinter",],"icon":"example.ico"}},
version = "0.01",
description = "Sea of BTC trading application",
executables = executables
)

how can reference from one Eclipse project to another when using cx_freeze

I have a problem
I have eclipse work space it's contain 4project each project reference from anther project. When I need to make an executable file using cx_Freeze, it can't import the other referenced project to it?
thanks
I tried this code:
base = None
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
if sys.platform == "win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
exe = Executable(
script="MyForm.py",
base="Win32GUI",packages=['QtCore', 'QtGui', 'QtSvg','tkinter','time','os','cls_MyForm','threading','sys','DAL','FS_Watch_Collection'],
compress=False, copyDependentFiles=False)
setup(
name = "First Version of File Watcher",
version = "1",
description = "File Watcher Program",
executables = [exe])
and this code:
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
#http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHcDHSWRCRQ
#http://www.python-forum.org/pythonforum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=34501&hilit=cxfreeze
includefiles = ['README.txt', 'CHANGELOG.txt']
includes = []
excludes = ['tkinter']
packages = ['pk_LocalStore','QtCore', 'QtGui', 'QtSvg','time','os','threading','sys']
setup(
name = 'First Version of File Watcher',
version = '0.1',
description = 'File Watcher Program',
author = 'ITE CO',
author_email = 'info#from-masr.com',
options = {'build_exe': {'excludes':excludes,'packages':packages,'include_files':includefiles}},
executables = [Executable('MyForm.py')]
)
but it's not working correctly
