When you convert a python script to exe file using pyinstaller. What it does is that, it bundles Python Interpreter and script's dependencies (In this case PyQt5) into a single stand-alone distribute folder/file (depends upon setting). As far as I know you can't just have classes in it. It doesn't work that way.
