I've bundled my app with pyinstaller to 2 *.exe
gui_app.exe (onefile)
config.ini
\libs (onedir)
winservice.exe
+ all DLLs and libs
When I manually install service with command winservice.exe install everything is fine, but when I use command from GUI:
def svc_install(self):
try:
svc_inst = sb.check_output([os.getcwd()+"\libs\winservice.exe", "--startup=auto", "install"])
except WinError as e:
msg.showerror(e)
I get this error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\rs_al\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\config.ini'
Why it's looking for config.ini in AppData? When I display current working directory msg.showinfo("", os.getcwd()) instead , it shows current directory with app files and dirs. I define path to config.ini in winservice code, also and I use gui_app to edit it.
self.filename = 'config.ini'
with codecs.open(self.filename, "r", encoding="utf-8-sig") as self.config_file:
self.config_ini.insert(tk.INSERT, self.config_file.read())
self.config_ini.bind()
def save_to_file(self):
with open (self.filename, "w", encoding="utf-8-sig") as self.config_file:
data = self.config_ini.get('0.0', tk.END)
self.config_file.write(data)
In configparse(anyway it's overridden by Pyinstaller)
default_path = str(Path(__file__).parents[2])
default_config_file = str(Path(default_path+"\config.ini"))
config.read_file(codecs.open(default_config_file, encoding="utf-8-sig"))
