Running debug with JSON script causes an error

Type: Bug

I created a debug JSON file:

{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Python Debugger: Current file",
            "type": "debugpy",
            "request": "launch",
            "program": "${file}",
            "console": "integratedTerminal",
            "args": "${command:pickArgs}"
        }
	]
}

When I start the debug and then enter an argument in the input filed, I get the following output error in the terminal:

$  /usr/bin/env d:\GIT\fso-sandbox-fsd-azure\Yigal\POC-AI\FSOEmbed\.venv\Scripts\python.exe c:\Users\yigal\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2025.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy\launcher 62306 -- D:\GIT\fso-sandbox-fsd-azure\Yigal\POC-AI\FSOEmbed\.vscode\launch.json embed 
/usr/bin/env: ‘d:GITfso-sandbox-fsd-azureYigalPOC-AIFSOEmbed.venvScriptspython.exe’: No such file or directory

The first line shows the correct command to launch the debugger, however the second line that should start python, has NO slashes and it is one long string which of course does not exists.

If I modify the line "args": "${command:pickArgs}" and use "args": "process" then it work fine! (note: I want to pass each time a different argument)

I tried different options that I found on the internet but they did not help.
I think it is a VS Code issue.
