Monterey 12.6 and Conda Environment Issue

Question

After the upgrade to Monterey 12.6, my IDE, VS Code, cannot locate any of the packages in my conda environments. I checked echo $PATH and all paths remains. All env files are also present in the directories. I am not sure what is the exact problem.

Any suggestions for diagnosis or solution is much appreciated.

A search on stackoverflow shows a few recent posts with the similar problems after updating to Monterey 12.6:

Answer 1

Uninstalling and reinstalling the jupyter extension in VS Code then install jupyter notebook again when prompted did the trick.
