(I suspect this has something to do with the fact that I created a virtual environment on my external usb drive but I don’t know how to solve the problem since it was working fine last night)
My VS Code python script suddenly isn't working anymore when I try to debug it the next day. It was working all fine, I saved the sccript and went to sleep. Woke up the next day and restarted VS code and suddenly the script no longer runs. I am not even able to select the environment in VS Code anymore for some reason in the interpertor menu.
Here is the error that seems to be thrown up in a new tab called "setup.py" for some reason:
Exception has occurred: AssertionError (note: full exception trace is shown but execution is paused at: <module>)

I don't understand what's changed and why VS Code suddenly doesn't want to work anymore.
I did create a new virtual environment on my external USB hard drive called "Othello" which you can see it's trying to access but can't do it. The weird thing is this was working fine last night so I don't get why it stopped working after restarting VS Code.
Another new thing I noticed is the fact that the VS Code Python Interpretor no longer says "Othello" when I select the exe from the environment folder that I created on my external drive, it used to say Othello next to the Python version name indicating it had selected the correct environment last night.
Thanks in advance.
