(venv) (base) both active on a python project, how do I get into venv only?

So I am using vscode with conda (for a django project), and trying to activate my virtual environment named "venv". And it goes from:

(base) C:\Users\User\Desktop\pfa-master\pfa-master\venv\Scripts> .\activate

to something like this:

(venv) (base) C:\Users\User\Desktop\pfa-master\pfa-master\venv\Scripts>

And if I try to find out Python version, it shows error like this:

(venv) (base) C:\Users\User\Desktop\pfa-master\pfa-master>which python
'which' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Note: I have Python in environment variables for anaconda.

What am I doing wrong?

You have two virtual environments active.

conda and virtualenv are both package manager and environment management system :

If you want to use (venv) only, you need to deactivate conda : conda deactivate

If you want to use (base) only, you need to delete the venv directory from your repository : sudo rm -rf venv. Command differs because you are using Windows.

first you can use activate to activate venv, and then use conda deactivate to deactivate (base).

You need to deactivate Conda. In terminal, conda deactivate should get rid of (base). When you want to reactivate Conda, conda activate.

if you have anaconda in your environmental PATH, try activate venv. Also, try restarting VScode sometimes it glitches.

Use the command python -V to find the installed python version and pip -V to get the current pip version.
