Solidity compiler error in VS Code

[Killpit]

I have the latest MacOS version and I have solidity compiler downloaded on my terminal (0.5.16+) and the text editor itself shows that it can support 0.4.17+ version. When I mention the latest version but it gives me the mistake that it is not supported. I've never encountered this mistake before and written codes in solidity 0.6.9

Error:

These texts are being shared for you guys to evaluate what's going wrong. All help will be appreciated

Here's the source code

pragma solidity ^0.6.9;

contract Voting{

struct Voters{
uint weight;
bool hasVoted;
}

struct Candidates{
string name;
uint voteCount;
}

mapping(address => Voters) voters; // voters[addres] = Voters
Candidates[] public candidatesList;
address public owner;

constructor(string memory _candidate1, string memory _candidate2, string  memory _candidate3)public{
    candidatesList.push(Candidates({name : _candidate1,voteCount : 0}));
    candidatesList.push(Candidates({name : _candidate2,voteCount : 0}));
    candidatesList.push(Candidates({name : _candidate3,voteCount : 0}));

    owner = msg.sender;
}

function authorizeVoter(address _address) public {
    require(msg.sender == owner);
    require(!voters[_address].hasVoted);

    voters[_address] = Voters({weight : 1, hasVoted : false});
}


function voteForCandidate(uint _index) public{
    candidatesList[_index].voteCount = candidatesList[_index].voteCount + voters[msg.sender].weight;
    if(voters[msg.sender].weight > 0){
        voters[msg.sender].weight = 0;
        voters[msg.sender].hasVoted = true;
    }
}

function getVoteForCandidate(uint _index) public view returns(uint){
    return candidatesList[_index].voteCount;
}

function getAllCandidatesWithVotes() public view returns (string memory, uint, string memory, uint, string memory, uint){
  return(candidatesList[0].name, candidatesList[0].voteCount,
    candidatesList[1].name, candidatesList[1].voteCount,
    candidatesList[2].name, candidatesList[2].voteCount);
}

}

Hi @Killpit just use the context menu to put the latest as follows:

The plugin will not pick up your terminal installation, check the readme for further options. But this will solve most of your problems. Note the difference between workspace (your current project) and global (all the vscode solidity projects)
