@SeepMystery
Q1) What do you see as your interpreter selected when you hover over Python environment extension icon?

Q2) Also which kind of environment did you expect us to activate? Was it conda or other plain venv or something else.

Q3) Also what happens when you have activate type to command
Screenshot would help alot. Thanks.
