That setting is from Windows, not vscode. I get that same error if I try to run "python3", even though I have 3.9 installed. I think that leointeg must be asking for python using some name that triggers the response from windows. I went to that Windows setting location, and I could turn off the offer to get Python3.9 from the Microsoft store, but then there would probably be nothing th launch by that name.
Felix probably needs to make the name used for Python configurable, or else python3.9 isn't on the system path. On Tuesday, June 8, 2021 at 11:31:28 AM UTC-4 Edward K.
