Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.76.2. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

Anything in DevTools perhaps?

Please can you check devtools.

No console errors.

But I debugged in compiled sources a little bit and saw that the quickpick item for the kernel picker is actually created here, and only the label is carried over, not the tooltip

vscode/src/vs/workbench/contrib/notebook/browser/viewParts/notebookKernelQuickPickStrategy.ts

Lines 663 to 671 in 22a09ea

	for (const sourceAction of sourceActionCommands) {
	const res: SourcePick = {
	action: sourceAction,
	picked: false,
	label: sourceAction.action.label
	};
	quickPickItems.push(res);
	}

Nice catch @connor4312 ❤️

However the Install Python Extension is not a kernel source, its a standard quick pick that is genrated by the Jupyter exetnsion and it works for me and tyler, but not for @connor4312
So, looks like the issue still exists even if we were to fix the issue identified above.
