TL;DR
In visual studio code in windows 10, when I try to select the interpreter it flashes and I can't click on it. Can someone help? For a good description look at the imgur link which contains the video. Thanks.


I tried resetting the PC and reinstalling visual studio code and that does nothing.
Any advice would be helpful.

It seems that VS Code Editor can't find your python executable. Check if it’s installed where VS Code thinks it’s installed.

You may have to reinstall python and then reinstall the VSCode python plugin to resync things.

I re-downloaded python and it seemed to work.
