In the README file, there is a heading Issues Using the Tool which clearly links to a post I wrote. Generally I assume people have read this but I have a feeling you haven't; have you?

Also I encourage you to write titles referencing the actual issue, I almost skipped over this.

For those who find this issue, here is a copy:

There could be a situation when installing auto-py-to-exe that you are told you require Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools. This occurs because the file that was downloaded from PyPI to be installed needs to be built and these tools will build it.

Generally the way to fix this would be to install the tools and run it again, but instead you can get a pre-built version. To do this, go to gevents PyPI page and click "Download files" on the right to bring you to the files that are on PyPI for this project. You will want to find the file that matches your setup and is a .whl file, for example, I am using Python 3.7 on Windows so I would look for cp37 in the "Python version" column, Wheel in the "File type" column and then in the files that match these two criteria, match my OS - Windows. This means the file I will want is gevent-1.3.7-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl (currently gevent is at 1.3.7).
