Nice work overall. Just a minor bug I encountered.
When i click the convert button without a valid command. The pyinstaller returns error, and the convert button gets permanently stuck at converting state. I have to manually close the app, restart it, provide all the file paths again, a lot of work when there are a lot of external files.
checking the cmd reveals this FileNotFoundError: [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'dist/' , so maybe we can catch this exception, and aim for a fix.
A fix would improve the user experience.

This is actually something I forgot to think about. I'll look into a fix.
