this is the whole thing which i got, after that the west update dint work actually it is not returning any errors also
Can you please show me a screenshot of the window where you generate your build configuration:
i.e. this one:
Best regards,
Edvin
This is the Build configuratioin window

Vishva
Is it possible to choose v3.1.1 from the dropdown menu on top? The one named "SDK"?
If so, try that, and see if that solves it. If it is not an option, try installing that SDK via the VS Code extension:
Best regards,

done
