How to load the PyQt5 UI file from resources?

Question

I want to load the window.ui file from resources_rc.py

I tried:

import resources_rc


class Ui(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super(Ui, self).__init__()

        uic.loadUi(':/newPrefix/window.ui', self)

But

OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: ':/newPrefix/window.ui'

PyQt: How do I load a ui file from a resource? didn't help.

Solved. Thanks to musicamante

stream = QtCore.QFile(":/newPrefix/window.ui")
stream.open(QtCore.QFile.ReadOnly)
uic.loadUi(stream, self)
stream.close()
