Trouble detecting environments

See original GitHub issue

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.51.1
Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): v2020.11.371526539
OS and version: Windows 10
Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): Python 3.8
Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | …): venv
Value of the python.languageServer setting: Pylance

Expected behaviour

The extension finds all interpreters listed under the venv Path variable.

Actual behaviour

The interpreter finds none of them (except those already in cache?)

Steps to reproduce:

Note too sure. For a while the select interpreter worked flawlessly but not anymore.

Logs

Error 2020-12-08 09:00:48: Failed to get interpreter information for 'C:\Users\xxx\venvs\ptf7\Scripts\python.exe' [Error: Command failed: "C:\\Users\xxx\venvs\ptf7\Scripts\python.exe" "c:\Users\xxx\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2020.11.371526539\pythonFiles\pyvsc-run-isolated.py" "c:\Users\xxx\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2020.11.371526539\pythonFiles\interpreterInfo.py"

However the above command when pasted in a new terminal window works flawlessly:

{"versionInfo": [3, 7, 5, "final", 0], "sysPrefix": "C:\\Users\\xxx\\venvs\\ptf7", "sysVersion": "3.7.5 (tags/v3.7.5:5c02a39a0b, Oct 15 2019, 00:11:34) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)]", "is64Bit": true}

Hello Python extension team, unfortunately I keep encountering this problem. It’s very erratic. Sometimes it only lists some virtual environments, sometimes (but rarely and I can’t figure under which circumstances) all of them are correctly listed, and sometimes, only one interpreter is available.

Sounds good! Feel free to subscribe to #12020 to get notified when the new interpreter discovery logic becomes available (on an opt-in basis as first) 👍
