It's not a python problem. Like I said, when you initiate a debug session, VS code will launch the python binary just fine, but it passes it the Windows path of the file you're debugging which obviously the WSL python binary can not understand. I assume F# on WSL would have the same issue, although I haven't tried personally. Here you can see a bug report for the issue: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/issues/67 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/issues/67 And the same issue for other languages: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/22663 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/22663 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-go/issues/926 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-go/issues/926 Looks like they've implemented fixes for C++ and nodejs though: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/85#issuecomment-277128833 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/85#issue... https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/39144#issuecomment-347310763 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/39144#issuecommen...
