Unable to activate virtual environment on visual studio code - visual-studio-code

I am using virtualenv to create a virtual environment. I am able to activate the virtual environment on the command prompt but when i try to do the same on visual studio code , it says "Could not find conda environment: Test
You can list all discoverable environments with conda info --envs.".
It is trying to find a anaconda environment inspite of me using a global python interpreter.
When I use "activate env_name", how do i make it to search and activate a virtual environment outside anaconda. I am using windows 10.

PowerShell Opening File instead of Running When in Python Virtual Environment

I am using Python 3.9.9 (installed via MSYS2) and Windows PowerShell on Windows 10 64-bit. I am trying to learn more about Python's virtual environment.
I was able to initialize and activate virtual environment using the respective commands in PowerShell.
python3 -m venv .venv
.\.venv\bin\Activate.ps1
I notice that before activating the virtual environment, python --version would work as expected and output the Python version installed. However, once virtual environment has been activated, the same command would prompt Windows to open a file (window below would pop up).
Window's reaction when in virtual environment
I know the virtual environment was activated because I could see (.venv) being displayed.
Is this expected behavior? What should I do for python commands to still work in virtual environments? Thank you for your help!

Can I run VSCODE in a text-only Linux terminal window similar to the way I run VIM?

I am working on a linux machine my work can benefit from VSCODE.
When I install and try to run VSCODE on an Ubuntu machine, I get this error:
root#ca012294dcc1:/tmp# code --user-data-dir /tmp
To use Visual Studio Code with the Windows Subsystem for Linux, please install Visual Studio Code in Windows and uninstall the Linux version in WSL. You can then use the `code` command in a WSL terminal just as you would in a normal command prompt.
Do you want to continue anyway? [y/N] y
To no longer see this prompt, start Visual Studio Code with the environment variable DONT_PROMPT_WSL_INSTALL defined.
/usr/share/code/bin/../code: error while loading shared libraries: libxshmfence.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
WSL is out of scope. This is not a WSL senario
Remote SSH is out of scope. I know I can connect over SSH with Visual Studio Code. But I like to replace something like VIM with code
There is no Linux GUI available. Only text mode.
Is what I am trying to do possible?

Python virtual environments do nothing

I've recently tried to start using virtual environments but I cannot get them to work as they should.
When I activate a virtual environment, my python interpreter seems to ignore it completely, and continue using my global environment. It says that the packages that I've installed to my virtual environment do not exist and it continues to use my global packages. I've tried using virtualenv and venv and they both have the same problem. Am I supposed to have my project files in a certain location with respect to the virtual environment folder?
FYI, I am using Windows 10
My virtual environment was also using my global environment only (using system site programs and packages; Windows 10). I used commands virtualenv .env -p python3 and .env\Scripts\activate. I found out there is a problem with paths (%PATH%). VEnv was in echo %PATH% but when I tried where python or where pip, path for VEnv was not there. I had very long length and diacritics in my path. I moved the project to a new directory (short simple path), generated a new virtual environment, activated and eureka. Virtual environment works.
