title: Modules installed in Conda environment not being found by VS code
body: <p>I have Python 3.6 installed using Anaconda as the sole Python instance on my computer.
  Following the <a href="https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_windows" rel="nofollow noreferrer">installation instructions</a> on TensorFlow, I created a conda environment called <em>tensorflow</em> running Python 3.5, activated it and ran 
  <strong><em>pip install --ignore-installed --upgrade tensorflow</em></strong> to install tensorflow.
  While inside the environment I am able to validate the installation by running <em>import tensorflow</em>, which works fine.
  To run my scripts in this environment in VS Code, I followed the instructions on <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/environments" rel="nofollow noreferrer">configuring Python environments</a> and selected the interpreter such that it corresponds 
  to the conda environment I created. This adjusts the python path variable in VS Code's user settings accordingly.</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
      "window.zoomLevel": 2,
      "files.autoSave": "off",
      "workbench.colorTheme": "Abyss",
      "python.pythonPath": "C:\\Users\\osharaki\\Anaconda3\\envs\\tensorflow\\python.exe"
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when I try to run a script inside VS Code that imports tensorflow I still receive the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorflow'</p>
  </blockquote>

  <p>What am I missing?</p>
