The following solution worked for me, and hopefully it works for you as well :)) I fixed the issue without changing the Python path as that did not seem like the right solution for me. You can now instal packages as usual, e.g., pip install sklearn.įor Jupyter, you need to do more - Jupyter notebooks in Visual Studio Code does not use the active virtual environment You cannot run this script on the current system.įor more information see: Global, virtual, and conda environments Installing ModulesĬtrl + Shift + P and Terminal: Create New Integrated Terminal


venv/Scripts/python.exeĪctivate.ps1 is not digitally signed. Then Python: Select Interpreter (via Ctrl + Shift + P)Īnd select the option (in my case towards the bottom) To keep track of what is installed: pip freeze > requirements.txtįor the older versions of VSCode you may also need to do the following: You can now instal packages as usual, e.g., pip install sklearn Open a new terminal within VSCode Ctrl + Shift + P and you'll see that venv is getting picked up e.g.: (venv). Then open Python Terminal ( Ctrl + Shift + P: Python: Create Terminal) Open Visual Studio Code in your project's folder. With a newer Visual Studio Code version it's quite simple. Note: Use faultInterpreterPath instead of python.pythonPath for newer versions. Restart Visual Studio Code in case if it still doesn't show your venv. (For Windows): Update "python.pythonPath": "Your_venv_path/Scripts/python.exe" under workspace settings. Update "python.pythonPath": "Your_venv_path/bin/python" under workspace settings. Under Files:Association, in the JSON: Schemas section, you will find Edit in settings.json. Go to menu File → Preferences → Settings.

I almost run into same problem every time I am working on Visual Studio Code using venv. That should also show the virtual environments present in that folder. Go to the parent folder in which venv is there through a command prompt. I have been using Visual Studio Code for a while now and found an another way to show virtual environments in Visual Studio Code.
