I have developed a Python script that runs in an infinite loop to perform certain tasks. Now, I want to distribute this script to users as an executable (.exe) file. Once downloaded, the script should run continuously in the background without requiring any user interaction, even if the user restarts their PC.
t how to ensure that the script runs continuously as a background task after being launched. Additionally, I’m not sure how to handle the scenario where the user restarts their PC or the script should run only if the user is online and using the whole application.
Could someone please provide guidance on how to achieve this? Specifically, I’m looking for advice on:
1)Converting the Python script to an executable (.exe) using PyInstaller or a similar tool.
2)Ensuring that the executable runs continuously as a background task without user interaction.
4)Handling the scenario where the user restarts their PC to ensure that the script automatically resumes running in the background.
