VSCode issue with setting python version to 3.10 on Azure function sample

Question

I am trying to run the Azure python function with Fast API locally and hit into this issue

The last one suggests upgrading to the 3.10 version of python to solve the issue. However when i try to upgrade in vs code , i get the errors below

When i try to manually add the path

I am not that familiar with all python ENV setups, any suggestions will be helpful

EDIT:

Yes, Here are all the versions I have on the machine

That version of python must first exist on your computer, before you can select it as the interpreter in vs code. Did you install Python 3.10.8 on your computer? — John Gordon, Nov 22 '22 at 17:30
Hmm. Python 3.10.8 is fairly new; perhaps vs code itself does not know about that version? Is there an update available for vs code? — John Gordon, Nov 22 '22 at 18:10

So what is your question? How is the virtual environment created? What are your steps? Can it be created directly using python commands? — JialeDu, Nov 23 '22 at 05:51

Below are the python versions installed in my windows system: enter image description here

When creating the Azure Function Python App in the VS code, it is not showing the Python 3.10.x version interpreter:

In this step, click on Skip virtual environment and create the required trigger function.

You can select the Python 3.10.x version interpret after creating the trigger function:

py -m pip install --user virtualenv
py -m venv env
.\env\Scripts\activate
py -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the above cmdlets to activate virtual environment taken, taken from the Python Packages Source.

So that you can be able to see the current python version for the current Azure Function in VS Code:
