vscode-python: Can not create a virtual environment

Type: Bug

Hello, I am new to python and I am from Spain. I was learning how to code with the microsoft learning path called “Python for beginners”. The problem appeard when I was in the 3rd module. When I had to create a virtual environment I couldn´t because VS Code doesn´t accept “virtualenv env”. Then I started watching videos in youtube for how to create virtual environments and I did it like the videos said but when “virtualenv env” appeard I couldn´t continue coding while the youtubers could. The learning path is very good and I swear I will finish it but whithout creating the virtual environment i can not continue. Hope you could help me, Alexander
