To clarify you want to save it on a specific computer or between multiple computers? Like do you want the value to be different or the same across multiple devices?

Same on all clients since the config is saved to the remote server.

have you tried the setting
python.defaultInterpreterPath?xgdgsc commentedon Sep 14, 2025
Why ？ Shouldn' t selected in UI do the saving automatically?

In the interest of consistency, I think it makes sense for VS Code to update the
python.defaultInterpreterPathinsettings.jsonwhen I select the interpreter.I can't think of a reason why it should not. PyCharm does it.

We save it with the Python Environment extension into a cache which gives us more control but still support user injected defaultInterpreterPath
