VS Code claiming that python isn't installed even when an interpreter is showing in the status bar
See original GitHub issueI have python installed and I have pythonPath set, but whenever I open a python project folder I get this popup
I get the poput even though I already opened this project previously in VSCode. And even more weird is that I just had a project open in a VSCode instance and I used the command to duplicate the current workspace in a new window and I got the popup in the new window.
