Pyinstaller distributing opencv from Windows 10 to Windows <10, missing ucrt dlls api-ms-win-crt

I need to do this myself but haven't yet. I'll try to post my full solution when I do. In the mean time...

I think you may have to explicitly request they be included instead of just expanding the search path.

Probably using the Tree class they mention to collect all the files for you.
