Debugger stops after 1 second of launching

Issue Type: Bug

The debugger does not start and immediately stops after 1 second of launching. The debug icons are visible for that brief time (like pause, step over, step into, etc). It does not work with and without a launch.json file. I use the default python debugger configuration ("python current file (workspace)").
This issue appeared today and was not present last week.

I am running into the same problem, updated VS Code this morning.

VS Code version: Code 1.64.0
OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19044

[DrFlamingoo]

Downgrade to Version 1.63.2 did not help.

May be your program is short running and actually finishes fast?
Do you see the same behavior if you set a breakpoint on a line of your program and then start debugging?

[DrFlamingoo]

Yes, I have set multiple breakpoints.
Usually, the debugger opens up a new terminal, changes into the (conda) environment, and executes the program, with all the logging data visible in the terminal. This is not happening at all.

If I "run" the python file instead, all of the above is happening.

[Engensmax]

Yes, breakpoints have no effect on the behaviour.

Thanks :)

Solved by installing previous version of the python extension.
