I installed:

Answer 1

A similar issue happened to me after I a completely reinstalled Python. Opening the settings.json by Ctrl+ ⇧ Shift+P:

and I saw that I had set the default linter to

so opening a terminal (e.g., Ctrl + ⇧Shift + ~) and the installing

pip install pylint_django

solved the problem.
