Deprecated

This extension is no longer being maintained. We recommend migrating to the Microsoft Python Environments Extension instead. Some functionalities may not be present yet, but it is under active development and being actively maintained.

Note: The Python Environments extension requires requires the pre-release version of the Python extension (ms-python.python) to operate (version 2024.23.2025010901 or later).

Feel free to submit new issues or feature requests on the Microsoft Python Environments Extension repository and reference its documentation in the README.md.
