On top menu right hand side there is a Right pointing arrow. Click that to run.

you can also right click in code window and then left click 'Run python file in terminal'

If you followed the VSCode from start tutorial, you should have all the necessary packages installed.

I did this earlier, but something is wrong. May be something is not installed properly?

It also is easier if you install Code Runner.
Also look at VS Code from start
Here a overview of my setup with Code Runner used.

thanks but...

Error:
[Running]
 python -u "C:\Users\VIKTOR~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tempCodeRunnerFile.python"
Python 
[Done] exited with code=9009 in 0.175 seconds

I think, that something is not installed properly or I must correct maybe the PATH or?
Maybe somebody knows what I have to change? thanks

Look at this it's the same for 3.9.
So you test that python and pip command work from anywhere in cmd

Then in setting.json VS Code.

"php": "php",
"python": "$pythonPath $fullFileName",
"perl": "perl",

Then try run code again in VS Code.
