VS 2015 Python Environments Greyed Out
I'm just getting started with Python and I want to use Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition (VS) for writing my code. However, after diligently following the instructions on GitHub (1) Install PTVS 2.2.2 (2) Install Windows Python 3.4.4, VS cannot find the Python interpreter and run the code. When I attempt to do so for VS manually via Options > Python Tools > Environment Option, all the buttons are greyed out (I cannot enter information) as well as the Python Environment Window
I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, repairing and modifying VS, PTVS and Python 3.4 but to no avail. Is there something I'm missing? Much appreciate the help!
