Hi,
When using Python Debug, the pickprocess utility (in launch.json => "processId": "${command:pickProcess}") requires the Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) service to be installed and available on the system.
However, WMIC is not installed by default on recent versions of Windows. This dependency can cause failures or unexpected behavior when attempting to launch pickprocess on systems where WMIC is absent.
We can add it manually but it's important to note that WMIC is now deprecated by Microsoft and is considered obsolete. Microsoft has officially announced that WMIC is being removed from Windows distributions and recommends using PowerShell cmdlets as alternatives for system management tasks.
Best regards
Christophe
