VScode import numpy Error: DLL load failed [How to Solve]

vscode & Anaconda import numpy failed: DLL load failed

Phenomenon:
in Anaconda prompt, import numpy is normal
in vscode, import numpy reports an error: DLL load failed

Error reason:
shell opening failed, resulting in CONDA activate failure. There is no environment, and naturally there is no numpy

Solution:
open the vscodesettings.json file

(type)               CTRL + SHIFT + P
(search for:)        open settings
(click:)             Preferences: Open Settings (JSON)

Add in settings.json:

	"terminal.integrated.profiles.windows":{
        "PowerShell": {
            "source": "PowerShell",
            "icon": "terminal-powershell"
        },
        "Command Prompt": {
            "path": [
                "${env:windir}\\Sysnative\\cmd.exe",
                "${env:windir}\\System32\\cmd.exe"
            ],
            "args": [],
            "icon": "terminal-cmd"
        },
        "Git Bash": {
            "source": "Git Bash"
        }
    },
    "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows":"Command Prompt" 

In addition, I also refer to another blog. You need to configure the environment variable
and put the following contents into this computer -> Attribute -> Advanced system settings -> Environment variable -> Path path:

D:\anaconda
D:\anaconda\Scripts
D:\anaconda\Library\bin
D:\anaconda\Library\user\bin
D:\anaconda\Library\mingw-w64\bin
