Description

I have set the default python interpreter path in the User Settings JSON file but VS Code reported `Could not resolved interpreter path`

Image

I have verified the python interpreter path is correct:

Image

I suspected that was because VS Code detected that I did not setup `pyenv init` in my .zshrc file.

Image

I did NOT execute `pyenv init - zsh` in the .zshrc file because it slows down the initialization of zsh. Instead I initialized the pyenv environment in .zshrc as follows:

```
export PYENV_ROOT=~/.pyenv
export PATH=$PYENV_ROOT/shims:$PATH
export PATH=$PYENV_ROOT/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv/shims:$PATH
```
