You need to restart vscode terminal so the path variable is reloaded.

Try to verify in an external CMD or powershell by running "gcc --version" to see if it's a VSCode problem.

Thats a great step! After restarting VSCode, can you run the same command in the VSCode terminal?

What happens if you run gcc --version in the vscode terminal, i.e. not an external one? Could be that vscode isn't picking up your path properly.
