@ugur1yildiz You should set the path manually with qtForPython.xxx.path instead of qtForPython.path.xxx. If there is still a problem, please let me know the message showing up and any other details for me to reproduce the problem. Thank you!

It worked. Thanks. FYI I didn’t write the settings name in json file. They were automatically written by some means after clicking “Set Tool Path” in the error box.

I couldn’t make it work even without venv and with entering absolute paths for “qtForPython.path.xxx” and for “python.defaultInterpreterPath”. I used for terminal both command prompt and powerShell. It gives the same error.
