I am facing difficulties trying to use Quarto in VSCode with Julia (again). I have asked a question here before (see this), but at the time I gave using Quarto in VSCode with Julia and simply used Quarto in RStudio with R. However, I’d like to give it another shot.
When I run quarto check on the Quarto terminal in VSCode, I get the following output. Note that the error message is the same I asked about in my previous post.
[>] Checking Quarto installation......OK
Version: 1.2.335
Path: C:\Users\hsd36\AppData\Local\Programs\Quarto\bin
CodePage: 1252
[>] Checking basic markdown render....OK
ERROR: The file cannot be accessed by the system. (os error 1920), stat 'C:\Users\hsd36\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python3.9.exe'
Now, if I run the same command on the terminal in in RStudio, I get the following. This time Checking Quarto Installation, Checking basic markdown render, Checking Python 3 installation, Checking Jupyter engine render are all OK. There is an ImportError related to a DLL, and I don’t know what to make out of it.
$ quarto check

I should say that I use Julia in VSCode frequently and have no problem running code. I also have installed IJulia, and when I run notebook(), I’m not prompted to install (Mini)Conda, which I take it as a sign that it’s already installed — not surprising given the results in Checking Python 3 Installation ... OK.
At this point, I do not know what else I should do. All help will be appreciated. I will also look into the possibility of using Quarto with Julia in RStudio. If you know if it’s possible, let me know.
