Everytime I try to execute my python code to the Python Interactive Window I get the below error...
Executing code failed : Error: Activating Python 3.7.3 64-bit ('base': conda) to run Jupyter failed with Error:
Command failed: "H:/My Documents/Continuum/anaconda3/Scripts/activate" && conda activate base &&
echo 'e8b39361-0157-4923-80e1-22d70d46dee6' && python
c:/Users/paul.victor/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2019.11.50794/pythonFiles/printEnvVariables.py python:
can't open file 'H:\My': [Errno 2] No such file or directory .
I have a feeling I'm supposed to try to remap my vscode/python extension that is installed in the C drive to where my anaconda is saved which is the H drive, but I'm not sure how to do that in the vs code settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Follow Up to Original
user8408080 was correct that removing the space did help. I also modified the path to the anaconda environment to my companies drive nomenclature,
instead of H: it used something like \\company\user...
Now that I fixed that it's kicking out another error saying the system cannot find the path specified even though the path is correct.

Looks like your Anaconda
in PATH
and Python Path
in VSCode
are pointing in different places.
First, check under system variables that your Anaconda is mapped to PATH
based off where it is installed.
1- Click Start Menu Windows logo, type "path" click on "edit the system environment labels"
2- Under PATH
for User Variables, if VSCode
installed correctly to it, you will see the location of the bin
file. Add to the PATH
variable if it is not there. Mine looked like C:\Users\hSin\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\bin
3 - Under PATH
for System Variables, if Anaconda
installed correctly to it, you will see the associated paths. There are multiple files/directories that should be a part here. Verify existence before adding as some of these are specific to when Anaconda installed and what settings you chose.
C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3
; C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Library\mingw-w64
; C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Library\usr\bin
; C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Library\bin
; C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Scripts
4 - Once all Path
setups of Anaconda are confirmed, you should be able to call python
from the terminal regardless of directory terminal is in. If not, your VSCode
doesn't have the correct interpreter mapped. Go to VSCode -> File -> Preferences -> Settings
and then search as below to find the Python:Python Path
setting. It should map to the root installation of your Anaconda
. Standard is C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3
5 - If still not working, your installations went to haywire and will require a reinstall of both applications. Install Anaconda
first, make sure to check off the box to add to PATH
, this is not default checked in the base installation. Then install VSCode, and set as default text editor. The Anaconda
extension pack should come up as recommended, which will tie the two softwares together seamlessly if installed after Anaconda.
