I added this solution to the main.py and it fixes the problem:

import pathlib
temp = pathlib.PosixPath
pathlib.PosixPath = pathlib.WindowsPath

Worked for me when added to top of qa.py rather than main.py

The origin of the issue, I think is within faiss_store.pkl, as a reference to a PosixPath is embedded.
