I do see pylint command working fine from VS code terminal.

pip show pylint

I also see the following three options are unrecognized in settings.json

"python.linting.enabled": true,
"python.linting.pylintEnabled": true,
"python.linting.lintOnSave": true,

Python extension along with pylance and python debugger extensions are working fine.

Please help.

Can you share a screenshot of the extension from the extension view? There should be a button to enable the extension.

Please see attached.. Enable option is disabled.

Can you show me the pylint page? It is currently showing SSH FS page, I want to see what version of the extension is installed and if there are any update options. What is the version of VS code you have?

Here you go

Looks like you are using a Virtual workspace. This is not supported by the pylint extension. You need to open this as a normal workspace. Only Pylance will work in this scenario.
