how to solve VS Code Debugger not working for python issue

• the issue is:

  • Clicking on "Run Python File" works fine. Clicking on "Debug Python File" now does nothing. Run->"start Debugging' no command comes to terminal

• the solution:

  • removing ./venv/ and ./.venv/ in my working directory
  • recreate the virtual environment
  • run my debug launch config specified in ./.vscode/launch.json (via F5)
  • redirect missing python interpreter path to the one specified in the venv
