i did try installing email_validator

by using pip pip install email_validator but its still showing me the same error

and pgadmin4 configurations seem right enter image description here

and sometimes it strangely says failed to open system default web browser and that error message stops after the restart and then it comes back again after several attempts to open pgadmin4

and this web browser error only pops up when pgadmin4 is running in the background if i kill pgadmin4 then failed to launch application server error pops up when i open it

Found solution here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67610220/pgadmin4-error-modulenotfounderror-no-module-named-email-validator

solution is to downgrade python-flask and python-flask-security-too. They cannot be past 2.0 and 4.0 respectively.
