could you please help me. I just downloaded python 3.7.8 and visusal studio code, but it does not look like visual studio code was able to set the path. I wrote a meaningless one liner code to begin learning print("hello world") and I have not been able to run the code run the code successfully since vscode would complain about the patH. please help so I could keep learning.

by the way, my operating system is windows 10.

Hi tonydaniel,

Welcome to MSDN forum.

Please kindly follow the guidance of Python in VS Code from the links that Viorel_ shared above, and install corresponding extensions to run the code.

Besides, please also refer to this document: Using Python environments in VS Code.

By the way, since our forum discusses about the usage of tools and editors in Visual Studio, as you know, Visual Studio Code is different from Visual Studio and they are two different products of Microsoft, I recommend you redirect to Stack Overflow tagged with visual studio code and start a new thread there to seek for a more professional help.

Feel free to contact us if you have any concern.

Best Regards,

Tianyu
