⚠️ Important Notice: Do Not Delete pyarmor_runtime.pyd

The file pyarmor_runtime.pyd is a critical runtime component required to run this application. It is responsible for decrypting and loading the protected code within app.py, which has been secured using PyArmor.

🔐 Without this file, the application cannot function.

If you remove, rename, or alter pyarmor_runtime.pyd, the encrypted app.py will become unusable, and the application will fail to launch with runtime errors such as:

RuntimeError: this script is encrypted by pyarmor, but no runtime library is found

✅ Required File Structure

/project-root
├── app.py ← Encrypted
├── pyarmor_runtime_000000/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   └── pyarmor_runtime.pyd ← DO NOT DELETE

📌 Summary

  • This file must be present in the folder pyarmor_runtime_000000.
  • It is not optional or replaceable.
  • Removing it will render the entire application unusable.
