To use the new debugger please add the following to your user settings:

    "python.experiments.optInto": [
        "DebugAdapterFactory - experiment",
        "PtvsdWheels37 - experiment"

This should get you the new debugger.

Note: We are moving to use debugpy package as the debugger, so you may see that instead of ptvsd

Experiments are disabled when telemetry is disabled.
