Python Environments does not escape spaces

[PinkSerenity]

When Python Environments selects a Python executable, it does not escape spaces, leading to errors like The term 'C:\Program' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program. if Python is installed in C:\Program Files\. Creating a Virtual Environment does not help because Python Environment strips the quotes around the paths in the pyvenv.cfg file.

Proposed solution: If the path is unquoted, quote it.

Workarounds: Currently none, the extension needs to be disabled to run Python scripts.

Thank you for the detail! I will get this fixed but in the meantime you can add python.useEnvironmentsExtension: false to your user settings and this should provide a fix.

Also to clarify, what action are you taking that is causing the error? Running a file, a task or creating an environment? Just want to confirm I am fixing the spaces in the correct spot

Thinking I found it- working on a PR now #652 which should resolve this

I tried running a file, sorry for forgetting that detail. I also realized that there is a rather unsatisfactory workaround, and that is killing the terminal session whenever you want to run the file. The first time the file is ran in a new session it works for some reason, but all subsequent attempts will fail.

Hello! The newest pre-release version of the python environments extension should now have the fix for this! Are you able to give it a try and let me know if the problem is resolved? If not please let me know what you are seeing and I can re-open this. Thanks!
