PyQt6 QWebEngineView can't load PPAPI flash player

Question

I want to make a custom client for an online flash game
I am on Linux Manjaro KDE
I installed PPAPI using sudo pamac install pepper-flash
the result of this code

from PyQt6.QtCore import QUrl
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt6.QtGui import *
from PyQt6.QtWebEngineWidgets import *
from PyQt6.QtWebEngineCore import QWebEngineSettings
import sys


sys.argv += ['--webEngineArgs',
               "--register-pepper-plugins=/usr/lib/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so;application/x-shockwave-flash",
                "--ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so", '--ppapi-flash-version=32.21.0.153']

class MainWindow(QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(MainWindow,self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.browser = QWebEngineView()
        self.setCentralWidget(self.browser)
        self.browser.settings().setAttribute(QWebEngineSettings.WebAttribute.PluginsEnabled, True)
        self.browser.settings().setAttribute(QWebEngineSettings.WebAttribute.JavascriptEnabled, True)
        self.browser.setUrl(QUrl("https://webbrowsertools.com/test-flash-player/"))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    window = MainWindow()
    window.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec())

is "This plugin is not supported"

What am I missing ???

once, I managed to run flash on PyQt5 QWebEngineView
but now the web page on PyQt5 is not even rendering. it is blank. I don't know why, it is the same code that worked before.

EDIT:
I managed to get PyQt5 QWebEngineView working again.
