Create example.py: ```import numpy as np import xarray as xr a = xr.DataArray(np.zeros(10)) print(a) ``` on console run this command: `pyinstaller example.py` It will create an executable `example.exe` in a new `dist` folder. Run that executable in a command prompt to be able to see the error message. **Anything else we need to know?**: The error does not happen with xarray version 0.13. **Environment**: `xr.show_versions()` output: ```commit: None python: 3.6.6 (v3.6.6:4cf1f54eb7, Jun 27 2018, 03:37:03) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)] python-bits: 64 OS: Windows OS-release: 10 machine: AMD64 processor: AMD64 Family 23 Model 1 Stepping 1, AuthenticAMD byteorder: little LC_ALL: None LANG: None LOCALE: None.None libhdf5: None libnetcdf: None xarray: 0.16.0 pandas: 1.1.0 numpy: 1.19.1 scipy: None netCDF4: None pydap: None h5netcdf: None h5py: None Nio: None zarr: None cftime: None nc_time_axis: None PseudoNetCDF: None rasterio: None cfgrib: None iris: None bottleneck: None dask: None distributed: None matplotlib: None cartopy: None seaborn: None numbagg: None pint: None setuptools: 49.2.0 pip: 20.2 conda: None pytest: None IPython: None sphinx: None ``` PyInstaller version: 3.6 ","{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/4294/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed,13221727,issue
