Actual behavior
This program works fine from the command line. I wrote this using the Python extension approx. 6 months ago on another mac. I recently picked up this program again and it shows me the import errors as shown in the attached screenshot. I know that it is pylint related. I am also attaching my user settings and workspace settings screenshots
Expected behavior
It should not show errors for import
Steps to reproduce:
See the screenshorts

This is a common error that most people come across, please check stack overflow as per the issue template.
You have not installed pylint in the same environment that contains your python packages.
The environment selected in VS Code is displayed at the bottom left on the status bar of VS Code.
Again, please check stack over flow and the documentation on selecting an interpreter https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/environments#_choosing-an-environment

Hello Don, Thanks for your quick response. I did more work on this issues last night and it may not be a VSCode Python extension issue at all. Rather, it seems like a 'pylint' issue. I took out the VSCode environment from the equation and ran pylint from command line and got the same errors. Please see below:

→ pylint vglabs_uploader.py

Would you have any idea on how to configure pylint correctly? I am using Anaconda installer and there is just one conda environment. I tried installing and uninstalling pylint both using conda and pip, but the error does not go away.
Apologies for hasty posting, I should have done the command line test before posting here.
