Thanks for reporting this issue. This seems to be related to the permission restrictions of the Python installation from the Microsoft Store. The error indicates that ADS is trying to execute a Python command, but access is denied:

"C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.12_3.12.2288.0_x64_qbz5n2kfra8p0\python.exe" -c "import platform;print(platform.python_version())"

Suggestions to Resolve:
Try a Different Python Installation:
Install Python from python.org or a package manager like Chocolatey or Anaconda. Ensure the new installation is in your PATH.

Run ADS as Administrator:
Right-click on the Azure Data Studio shortcut and choose Run as administrator to check if permissions are the issue.

Manually Install Notebook Dependencies:
Install Jupyter dependencies manually in your Python environment:

pip install jupyter notebook

Check Python Interpreter in ADS:
Use the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) to select the correct Python interpreter for your Notebooks.

Let us know if any of these steps help!

Closing as outside the scope of ADS, since it can't direct control the permissions of the Python installation.

This thing is creating problem
