Changing settings in Visual Studio to Python 3

[andrewL]

The navigation seems to have changed in the Jan 23 VSC release. The explanation in video 9 - Running Python Code, no longer works. Any suggestions?

I have the same issue with Video9

Using a Mac and I’m trying to change ‘Default User Settings’ code-runner.executorMap from -u to python3; however following Code > Settings, there are no 3 dots next to the ‘User Settings’ and ‘Default Settings’ tab, as per video, so I can’t figure out how to change this.

Come on Mosh! Is there any customer support? Happy to throw money at you to teach me Python, but there needs to be support when there’s a problem

How to change code runner on vs code from python u to python 3

I got the same issue. After digging in the introduction of Code Runner, I found out the the default command for running python is “python -u”. Simply go to the settings>Extensions>Run Code Configuration then find executorMap, and click the “Edit in setting.json” button. You’ll see something like this screenshot. Edit the “python” line, make sure it’s "python": "python3 -u" [image]
