How can I run a Python project on another computer without installing anything on it?

I have a Python Project that has a bunch of dependencies (in my VirtualEnv). I need to run my project in my school computer for Demonstration. My School computer does not have python installed, and lets assume also wont have an Internet connection to install it. I have written the program in Windows 10, and the school computer runs Windows 7.

I have looked at these solutions so far, and also here is why I think they may not work.

1. Copy and pasting my virtual Env – Doesnt work because venv’s have their own structures and has my username in its paths which it will look for in the other system.
2. Using Py2Exe. I have an Exe file, that I can now run on other systems running Windows 10 without them having python or any of my packages. But I am not sure the VC++ dependencies will be present in windows 7. It may also have some other weird issue that I cant risk.
3. Docker. I am not familiar with Docker, but can do it if this happens to be the only way.

How can I run the python file in that computer?

Also note that I will not have the time to mess around in the other system. Ideally I must plug in my USB and Open the file to run it. If you think there isn’t a solution to this, please let me know by telling so.

Thanks!

Answer

I see two options.

1. Use an online IDE and Python Interpreter (assuming you did not have internet for downloading Python, but do have internet in general). I suggest replit.

2. Use a portable version of Python. Those are available in the official website and are called “Windows embeddable package”. You can test downloading it to a usb, and running it in some computer without Python; it should work.
