Description

When freezing and making an installer from my program, the subprocessing functionality is broken.
I am using QRunnable objects to execute some tasks. The running of these processes is handled by the application QThreadpool.

This functionality completely breaks after freezing and making an installer.

According to these messages, there is a bug in Pyinstaller with threading. Is that the case? I need help finding something in the Fman documentation about this issue. Is Threading supported? How?
