Changing python -u to python3 in VSCode running Python

Hello guys, I am Getting Started section, lecture 9: Running Python Code, Mosh shows how to open and change the json settings. My problem is in his video in the version of his Vscode you can place your settings on the write side to overwrite their default. On the latest version of VSCode (1.52.0) I do not have that option. At this time I am unable to change my python -u to python3. Please if anyone else encountered this problem and was able to figure it out I would gladly appreciate the help thank you.

Yeah I had this problem.
Just go to setting and search for json
Then click “Edit in setting.json”
like this:

I have the same issue. I spend a lots of time and i ended watching lots of videos, but I didn’t find a way.

Okay, I managed to it find by searching “settings json”

I then selected json instead of ui.

Then also had to type

“code-runner.executorMap”:

This then generated the code where the Python settings could be changed- this is also used for referencing to the virtual environment.
