Cannot activate the 'Python' extension because it depends on the 'Jupyter' extension, which is not loaded. Would you like to reload the window to load the extension?

See original GitHub issue

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.54.1
Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): v2021.3.680753044

Relevant/affected Python-related VS Code extensions and their versions: MS Jupyter v2021.5.702919634

Expected behaviour

When connecting remotely, MS Python extension should start

Actual behaviour

When connecting remotely, MS Python extension does not start and gives the error: Cannot activate the 'Python' extension because it depends on the 'Jupyter' extension, which is not loaded. Would you like to reload the window to load the extension?

Reloading the window does not fix the issue.

Steps to reproduce:

Docker Engine
I don’t use .devcontainer files or other VS Code special files except ‘launch.json’
Uninstalling and reinstalling MS Python extension does not fix the issue.
Deleting the extension following file and reinstalling the extensions fix the issue for the current session: ~/vscode-server/extensions/ms-python.python-2021.3.680753044 ~/vscode-server/extensions/ms-toolsai.jupyter-2021.5.702919634
When I restart the server, the issue arises again immediately upon connecting with VS Code Remote-SSH connection

Thanks for you help!
