When I click Debug button on PyCharm, it wrongly recognizes where pydevd.py file resides.
The console message is as below;
C:\Users\young\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python3.10.exe "C:/Users/young/AppData/Local/Programs/PyCharm Professional/plugins/python/helpers/pydev/pydevd.py" --multiprocess --qt-support=auto --client 127.0.0.1 --port 61823 --file C:\Users\young\Documents\GitHub\some-project\app.py

The reason seems clear. The path /PyCharm Professional/ is trimmed because of whitespace in a path. But I don't know how to fix it up in IDE settings.
Note that PyCharm v2023.2.3 (232.10072.31)
I ended up with WSL(Ubuntu) environment.
The WSL debug calls pydevd as below, so the wrong path was not recalled.
