Visual studio code is stuck on Select Python Interpreter - python

I am trying to run a jupyter notebook on my Windows machine by using WSL2 to run it in Ubuntu 20.04. It was working perfectly fine yesterday but today it's not selecting a Python Interpreter. I have tried reinstalling Ubuntu, Anaconda and Visual Studio Code.
When I run
code path_to_notebook.ipynb
It opens the window below:
visual_studio_code
After a couple seconds the box (that I've made a yellow square around) pops up. When I click in the "Select Python Interpreter" button and select the interpreter that I want (~/anaconda3/bin/python) nothing happens.
The Select Python Interpreter (red box) also stays there.
What should I do?

I've gotten around the problem by using $ jupyter notebook --no-browser in the terminal.
Unfortunately, this means that additional computer resources are required to run the notebook in my browser over a text editor. But it gets the job done.

Visual Studio Code: Debugging of Jupyter Notebooks not working

Unfortunately I am not able to debug Jupyter Notebooks in Visual Studio Code. Maybe somebody has an idea why?
Detailed description:
After pressing "F5" the debugger (popup) starts as expected. Everything seems to run fine. "Only" that it doesn't stop at my breakpoints.
Debugging normal (i.e. non-jupyter-notebook) python scripts works without problems.
I have added the line '"jupyter.experimental.debugging": true,' to my 'settings.json'.
I use the latest VScode version 1.60.2.
There is only one python version installed on my laptop. Namely the latest anaconda distribution. I've also runned "conda update anaconda", "conda update python" and "pip install ipykernel". It shows that I use "ipykernel: 6.2.0".
Running Debugger
Now it works for me. With pressing "F5" I get the above described wrong behavior. But with pressing "Debug Cell" next to the play button (or Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Enter) it works fine:

Python: Use Jupyter kernel in VSCode

I am using Python 3 in Visual Studio Code (latest version).
I am wondering if there is a way to run Python scripts (in .py format) in VSCode adopting Jupyter Notebook as default terminal (instead of Powershell).
In a few words, I would like to make VSCode similar to Spyder IDE, which uses Jupyter Notebook as terminal and shows script variables in Variables Explorer.
Thanks in advance.
Using Jupyter extension you can create notebooks and interactive windows.
By clicking the Variables icon in the top toolbar after running code and cells, as mentioned on vscode documentation, you can view your variable explorer.

Why is jupyter-notebook (Anaconda) not running scripts with any of its options?

I am trying to run a python script using jupyter notebook but when I hit Shift + Enter on selected cell or click Run from Menu, nothing happens, the control just shifts to next cell downwards.
I closed anaconda and started it again but the issue is not gone.
And then I added Anaconda script folder to my system path but that too did not help.
I was not facing this issue earlier.

Installed Python and Idle is not available

On my desktop PC. I downloaded and installed Python and was able to get the IDLE program. But on my laptop, I am getting nothing. See Image Below. Why isn't Python IDLE application not available? But when I type in "python" I am only getting the Python black command prompt box. Like this in the screenshot below.

How to fix run issues in vscode for python scripts

I have been using vscode for only css and html and pycharm for python and lately I have switched to vscode also for my python scripts . I did all the necessary configurations and extensions installations I even installed code runner but so far I have not been able to properly run my python scripts without passing through the debug face when I click on the run button it still shows only the output from the previous run.
I believe you are trying to run the code like a Jupyter notebook. If you highlight code and press shift+enter it should turn on a python interpreter that runs the code in a new pane.
