As you can see python code I am trying to add .png image in my program but when I try it shows me error
The below error is shown by interpreter-
An error occurred while loading the image
open file using VS code's standard text/binary/editor?
import pygame
#initialize pygame
pygame.init()
#create the game screen
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((800,600))
# title and icon
pygame.display.set_caption("space invaders")
icon = pygame.image.load('spaceship.png')
pygame.display.set_icon(icon)
# game loop
running = True
while running:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
running = False

Unfortunately it is a known and reported bug on the official repo of VS Code. I invite you to read the comments but unfortunately the issue has been closed and there doesn't seem to be a definitive solution. Someone claims that it doesn't happen all the time and that by restarting VS Code it was able not to run into the error.
Here you can see that it has been reported several times already:
