'QWebEngineView not showing anything on Windows 10
I've created a Python app that works perfectly on Mac but I need to be able to run it on Windows.
So far, I'm stuck with my QWebEngineView not displaying anything. I've created a small piece of code to test but so far, it only shows a blank window on Win10 while it runs perfectly on MacOS:
from PySide2.QtCore import QUrl
from PySide2.QtWebEngineWidgets import QWebEngineView
from PySide2.QtWidgets import QApplication
APP = QApplication()
web_widget = QWebEngineView()
my_url = QUrl("http://www.google.com")
web_widget.load(my_url)
web_widget.show()
APP.exec_()
It almost looks like Win10 is unable to load/display this webpage, like it's missing some king of component to display this webview... What am I doing wrong?

I ran into the exact same issue.
After quite a while exploring different solutions, the cause was in fact that I was trying to launch my app on a Network Drive.
See this: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-84632
It worked perfectly on local drive, or by setting the environment variable:
SET QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1
It has been a while since the question was asked. I'm leaving this potential solution here in case of need.
