I have been attempting to set up my Python workspace on VS Code, but the programme keeps telling me that I need to instal Python because it doesn't seem to recognise that I already have Python installed.
For this, use Ctrl + Shift + P to open the command palette. Then, enter Python: Clear Workspace Interpreter Setting . On the next panel, select to delete all. After this, you should be able to select an interpreter by entering Python:Select Interpreter in the command palette.
You would need to check your VS's interpreter setting and the python path (make sure the version is correct)
There are several possible reasons why you might see the "Invalid python interpreter selected" error message in Visual Studio Code (VS Code). Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try to fix the issue:
I hope these steps helps
Virtualenv has hardcoded path inside the bin/activate file, which will fail when you move the virtualenv.
One way is to recreate your virtualenv. Another way is to open the file bin/activate and find this line VIRTUAL_ENV='/private/tmp/test2/.venv' and replace it with your new virtualenv path.
