Facing the same issue since yesterday on most of my python 3.11 envs on VS code (1.90.1) on Ubuntu

[DaanVanHauwermeiren]

I am facing a similar issue.

For reproducibility, an example of my environment file:

name: project-XYZ
channels:
  - defaults
  - conda-forge
dependencies:
  - python==3.11
  - pip
  # - ...

installing a new environment via

conda create -f environment.yml

This will make a correct environment with the correct python env.
But VSCode will not recognize as 3.11 but as 3.1.

A workaround is to first setup the conda environment:

conda create -n project-XYZ python=3.11

Then update with environment file:

conda env update --file environment.yml --prune

The environment is now correctly recognized by VSCode.

Same for 3.12.3 displayed as 3.1.undefined. I'm also using conda.

I'm sorry for not getting back to you on this, we did identify an issue in the area of detecting the version and it was resolved in a subsequent release.
See here #23580 & here microsoft/vscode-jupyter#15754

Please can you update to the latest version of the Python extension and verify whether this has been resolved.

Duplicate of #23649

Please try the pre-release, which has a potential fix for this.

@DonJayamanne
I did an update of VSCode + all the relevant extensions to the latest version. Seems to work now.

updated Python extension to v2024.9.11761016 (pre-release) and conda environments >= 3.10 now working properly. Thank you!

[SantiagoMorandi]

Just updated Python extension to the pre-release version and the issue is resolved now.

Thank you!
