It just seems like I can't open a terminal in VS Code. Every time I try to open a terminal, it gives me this error:

the error i encounter

I would be grateful if anyone could help me with this.

I tried reinstalling VS Code but it didn't work. I also tried disabling all extensions except python extension but it didn't work too.

    Hi, welcome to stackoverflow. Your answer is not essentially different from @Raylo's answer, and not very useful since it does not add any new value or information. Please avoid writing duplicate answers, either edit your answer to add value or delete it altogether, this will ensure all questions and answers on the site remain useful, not scattered/duplicated. – Peter Macej Dec 28 '22 at 08:55
