My created conda python environments are not available for selection in the Python: Select Interpreter option for new workspaces. Older workspaces work fine, with the previously attributed environments. Manually finding the environment is also broken as nothing happens when I navigate manually to previously created conda environments

    is this new to this release? If you go to the previous release does that fix it or has this been happening for a few releases

    On the previous release this was not an issue. I have noticed though that switching back the Python Environments extension to the Pre-Release version, this issue is resolved.

    So far that's how I'm working. It does however signal an incompatibility between the new VS Code and the latest Python Environments release

    🤖 Thanks for the follow-up. Since switching only the Python Environments extension to its pre-release build resolved this, could you confirm whether the problem still occurs with the latest Python and Python Environments extensions? A closely matching Windows/conda discovery failure was fixed by microsoft/vscode-python-environments#1102 and shipped in Python Environments v1.18.1. If it still reproduces, please include the Python Environments output so a maintainer can transfer this to https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python-environments with the needed diagnostics.
