First uninstall the Python plug-in, then close and reopen vscode, and finally reinstall the plug-in. It worked.

Hi @Amtran7599, thank you for reaching out.

When you say that you pave pythonPath set, do you mean in your .vscode/settings.json file? Does it appear in the status bar in the bottom left corner?

Do Anaconda3 and Python 3.8 refer to the same Python executable, or 2 different ones?

Thanks!

@kimadeline

Thanks!
well,the pythonPath set means environment varible setting.Anaconda 3 and Python 3.8 are 2 different ones.Now I reinstall both VScode and Anaconda 3 in C disc.after that It could reconginzed Anaconda 3 and Python 3.8.I don't know why.

Ok, glad to hear it works now! I'll close this issue as resolved, but feel free to leave a comment and we can reopen it if it happens again 🙂
