Description

I’ve tried to install ESP-IDF using esp-idf-extension-1.6.4 in VSCode with version v4.3.5 and v4.4.5 and always get the same issue with creation of virtual environment. However once I copy and paste it to terminal window I can create this virtualenv using command D:\\Espressif\\tools\\tools\\idf-python\\3.11.2\\python.exe -m virtualenv --python D:\\Espressif\\tools\\tools\\idf-python\\3.11.2\\python.exe --seeder pip D:\\Espressif\\tools\\python_env\\idf4.4_py3.11_env I’ve even changed the default integrated terminal from bash to cmd (as I thought that might be a problem) but it still the same
