This works for me. How are you running the python file in the terminal?
Note, the command python <file> should be display in the terminal window, not the Python output panel.

You're right, it's displayed in the terminal.

I'm running with a shortcut assigned to "Run Python File in Terminal".

Weirdly, I've just noticed that if I right click the editor and select the same option, it uses the correct Python version. But using the shortcut, it always uses "python"

BTW it also uses the incorrect version when e.g. it attempts to install pylint via the popup. I had to re-run the pip install command with "python3" in order for the editor to stop warning about missing pylint. (I can open a separate issue for this...)

Please could you try running the above command from the command palette?

I got the same result (runs with "python").

I'm working on a workspace with multiple folders. I tried "Open folder..." with only the specific folder I'm working with right now, and then the above works. If I reopen the workspace, it stops working.

Bingo, I believe that's where the problem lies. This will be fixed in #592
