You're working with one of the most common Python + VS Code environment issues — Python interpreter mismatch. This happens when your code editor (VS Code) is not using the same Python interpreter where discord.py is installed.

Even though the module is installed correctly (you confirmed via CLI and help>modules), VS Code might be running the script using a different interpreter, which doesn’t have discord.py.

Let’s fix it step by step:

1. Find Out Where Python is Installed with the Package

You already know it's here:

C:\Users\MYUSER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\

You can double-check by running in the command prompt:

Where python

or

py -3 -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)"

2. Check VS Code’s Selected Python Interpreter

In VS Code:

• Press Ctrl+Shift+P(or F!) to open the command palette.

• Type:Python: Select Interpreter

• Pick the interpreter that matches this path:

• C:\Users\MYUSER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\python.exe

if it's not listed, click"Enter interpreter path" and manually navigate to:

• C:\Users\MYUSER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\python.exe

3. Reload VS Code / Restart Terminal

Once you’ve selected the correct interpreter:

• Restart VS Code (optional but recommended)

• Check your terminal (bottom of VS Code), it should now use the correct environment

• Try running your .py script again

4. Confirm It Works

In your Python script, add:

import discord

print(discord._version_)

Then run it:

python yourscript.py

If everything is correct, it should print:

2.5.2

Still Seeing Yellow Underline or Errors?

Here’s what you can do:

• Go to settings.json (Ctrl+Shift+P> "Preferences: Open Settings (JSON)") and make sure there is no incorrect pythonPath setting.

• Reinstall Pylance if needed:

  pip install pylance

• Or reload VS Code's language server:

  • Ctrl+Shift+P> Reload Window
