I have a code that include a line requires admin permission to run.

with pydivert.WinDivert("(tcp.DstPort==80 ) and tcp.PayloadLength >0 ") as w:

When I run the script in cmd without admin rights, I get the next error:

PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied."

When I run the script in cmd that opend by "run as administrator", its working.

The problem start when I try to convert this script to exe file by pyinstaller. The code inside the exe file Requires the admin permissions. How can I solve it?

Have you tried running the executable as an administrator?

Some programs will let you convert scripts into admin-only executables, but I'm not sure this would help you here. Like I said, try running the EXE as administrator.
