VSCode Conda Activate Base Giving CommandNotFoundError

I have Anaconda and Visual Studio Code installed on my computer. My default terminal for VS Code is Git Bash. When I open a new terminal in VSCode, it immediately runs the followin

Solution 1:

I had the same issue. For me, easily resolved by launching VSC from the conda window.

Specifically, open your cmd prompt (for me, Anaconda Prompt), activate the environment using 'conda activate [envname]'. Then just run the command 'code'. This will launch VS Code with the activated environment and associated variables. From there, the debug works as expected.

Solution 2:

I had the same issue, I've fixed it by adding the Python.CondaPath in settings. Press Ctrl + Shift + P and select Terminal Configuration. Search for python.conda, and paste your conda path for example. C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe

This will fix your issue.

Solution 3:

In VS code settings, search for "terminal.integrated.shellArgs.windows", then click "Edit in settings.json". For me, this opened "%APPDATA%\Code\User\settings.json". I set "terminal.integrated.shellArgs.windows": "-i -l" and this fixed it for me. My file:

{
    "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe",
    "terminal.integrated.shellArgs.windows": "-i -l"
}

Solution 4:

I had exactly the same error as you. I solved it with a tip from a Python course in Udacity

Open Git Bash command line (NOT within VSC terminal) and go to your home folder, e.g., /c/Users/arman. Then run the following two commands but replace [YOUR_PATH] with your Anaconda installation folder

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:[YOUR_PATH]:[YOUR_PATH]/Scripts"' >> .bashrc
echo 'alias python="winpty python.exe"' >> .bashrc

For example in my case, as I have miniconda, I executed:

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/c/Users/arman/Miniconda3:/c/Users/arman/Miniconda3/Scripts"' >> .bashrc
echo 'alias python="winpty python.exe"' >> .bashrc

After this executing those lines, i.e., creating the .bashrc file, then run:

source .bashrc

Afterwards, open VSC and try running or debugging a python program. It worked for me!

Solution 5:

I solved this issue by using Powershell. Start the Powershell as Administrator and then type

set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

Say yes if it asks a confirmation. Now, VSCode debugger option can be used with Python.
