Pyinstaller matlab-engine problem running the .exe on a different machine

I'm working on an application that uses the matlab engine API for python. The app works fine, without any issue, therefore I wanted to pack it into a single exe.
pyinstaller --additional-hook-dir=hooks --onefile main.py
Now on my own computer the .exe file works fine, but as soon as I try to run it on a different machine (with Matlab installed), it gives me the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "matlab\engine\__init__.py", line 45, in <module>

It seems that it can't find the module "matlabengineforpython3_8", which in theory is in the engine folder in the matlab installation path. Then it's looking for a file in the wrong place, because the machine doesn't have an F: disk, but my computer does.

This is because in matlab\engine\__init__.py it looks for the matlabengineforpython3_8 in the directories specified in _arch.txt (this file should be in the matlab\engine directory) and there are several directories from your computer hardcoded probably from when you installed matlab engine. You could try to manipulate the init file or arch.txt.
You might want to try packaging the matlab functions and scripts by using the PythonPackage functionality from Matlab Compiler SDK, but then you need this toolbox. The packages can then be installed as normal python packages and you don't call the matlab engine anymore but rather use "python import style". The other machine still needs to have matlab installed or at least matlab runtime.
