Exception in plugin when opening PyCharm

Describe the bug
Exception in plugin when opening PyCharm.
I have been using this plugin for a while, so I guess the problem is probably related to new project I just cloned from GitHub: learn-terraform-lambda-api-gateway

To Reproduce

1. I opened PyCharm
2. This opened newly cloned project https://github.com/hashicorp/learn-terraform-lambda-api-gateway.git
3. See error

Screenshots

Actually, it seems the problem is with PyCharm.

Although it created a virtual environment, it didn't associate it with the project, so the plugin was trying to use the MacOS default, which (even though this Mac was purchased in 2021) is still 2.7...

Though it would be nice if plugin displayed a nice warning and ignored the project.
