I recently create an app using Python in VS Code. I made some modifications and now the Run button in the top left is gone. I can only run the app with the debug mode. I already try to click the little bug as it was suggested on another post. It is doing the same on my macbook when I share my code with Github. If I run the same code in a new file the Run button came back.
Do you have any way to solve this problem without having to create a new file?
You have two options here:
Search for Python in Microsoft Visual Studio Code's Extension: Marketplace and hit on install.
Search for Jupyter in Microsoft Visual Studio Code's Extension: Marketplace and hit on install.
Or you can use your terminal or command prompt to install them. Open the terminal or command prompt and write these commands there.
Install Microsoft Python extension,
code --install-extension ms-python.python
Install Microsoft Jupyter extension ,
code --install-extension ms-toolsai.jupyter
Search for Code Runner in Microsoft Visual Studio Code's Extension: Marketplace and hit on install.
Or you can use your terminal or command prompt to install it. Open the terminal and write the command.
Install Code Runner,
code --install-extension formulahendry.code-runner
You must go with the first option by Microsoft. If you go with both the options, you install Code Runner and Microsoft Python and Jupyter extensions then the Microsoft Python extension will only work if you disable Code Runner.
Code Runner is a good extension for C, C++, Java, Javascript, Perl, ... but for Python Microsoft Python and Jupyter extension is the best.
Try installing the "Code Runner" extension, with that you should be able to run your programmes inside VSCode.
Go to extensions then type python The first result must be python developed by Microsoft Install it/Enable it or reload it and the button will show enter image description here
I faced a similar kind of issue and what I did was "uninstall python" and then install it again. it worked perfectly in my case. I guess all MS products are plagued with these restarting/re-installing issues.
