Creating new "Project from Example" fails with "Failed to find python3 executable." #88

Open mtexplorative opened 1 week ago

mtexplorative commented 1 week ago

My set-up is a Mac, Apple-Silicon, Visual Studio Code 1.93.1 and "Raspberry Pi Pico" v0.16.2. python3 is installed via homebrew and can be executed in the terminal. I even provided the full path to python3 within the settings of the extension. I am not sure where to find any log information by "Raspberry Pi Pico" so I get stuck here.

Interestingly, if I uninstall the extension, remove any cached downloads, and re-install, the first time using "Project from Example" works. Afterwards it is not working anymore.

Could you try using the fixes in #94 - this should improve the python management by the extension, so may fix this issue? You can download the .vsix file for this PR from https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-vscode/actions/runs/10998382245?pr=94
