That seems like just what I did. You might look at the Qt files in Python's Lib\site-packages in the venv and see if they are symlinked to the files in the main (non-vm) install. I don't know when files in a new VM get symlinked and when they don't. If they are symlinked then I only have three ideas left:
1. Delete all Qt files yourself and re-install their packages one by one with pip; 2. Downgrade PyQt and the WebEngineView to an earlier version. If they are not symlinked I would say to do the same but inside the venv's site-package directory. 3. One more possibility would be to delete everything in the venv and re-create it (or make a new one) and to pip-install leo 6.8.1. This version of Leo may (and probably will) run. Then just use that venv to run your Leo clone. Maybe #3 should be the first thing to try. Oh, yes, can you search for that DLL by name to see if it's actually present on the computer?
