Debugger stopped working - runs raw path to python with error

[DimitryNechaev]

Out of nowhere can't debug any of my projects

c:\Program: The term 'c:\Program' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.

Changing "Python: Select Interpreter path"

Or in settings:

Has absolutely no effect on the path to Python in the debugger. It has no means of control.

@Tyriar any thoughts here? Seems to be selecting the wrong shell prompt and causing an error but i am not super familiar with this section of the code so Im not totally sure.

I narrowed this down to using parameters. Without parameters it runs correct command.

without parameter:

PS C:\work\Test>  c:; cd 'c:\work\Test'; & 'c:\Program Files\Python312\python.exe' 'c:\Users\<me>\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.12.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy\adapter/../..\debugpy\launcher' '54574' '--' 'ProcessOrders.py'

Runs OK.

with parameter:

seeing that without parameters we add quotes to the executable which fixes it since the executable has a space in it; I think this is the same problem here which I just fixed. Closing, lmk if you still see the issue on the newest version of the extension
