    from os import environ
    
    if hasattr(sys, '_MEIPASS'):
        # PyInstaller >= 1.6
        chdir(sys._MEIPASS)
        filename = join(sys._MEIPASS, filename)
    elif '_MEIPASS2' in environ:
        # PyInstaller < 1.6 (tested on 1.5 only)
        chdir(environ['_MEIPASS2'])
        filename = join(environ['_MEIPASS2'], filename)
    else:
        chdir(dirname(sys.argv[0]))
        filename = join(dirname(sys.argv[0]), filename)
        
    return filename
