Hi,

I'm downgrading this as I cannot reproduce your error. I tried on 3
different systems, but the app starts as usual every time.

Unfortunately, you did not provide any information about the system
you're running. Without it, we cannot investigate this any further.

Actually, the app crashes with env var PYTHONSAFEPATH=y which is a best
security practice.
The problem is that convertall app is not a cleanly-designed python app
with a dedicated package (even just in local, no need to be on PyPI), so
the python interpreter can't find the rest of convertall sources.

Then I suggest you take that to the upstream developer at
https://github.com/doug-101/ConvertAll to improve the app's design.
