I keep getting prompted to "Pick how to connect to Jupyter" even though no .ipynb files are open

[thatlittleboy]

I've just updated VS Code to the latest version, and also the Jupyter extension.

And now everytime I open up a vscode window with a python file, I will get prompted to "Pick how to connect to Jupyter", when I have no intention to use Jupyter whatsoever.
It's not clear from my image, but I assure you I have no ipynb files open, nor anywhere in my Code workspace.

How can I get the extension to stop prompting me everytime? OR at least restrict it to prompt me only when a Jupyter server is actually required, i.e., when I open an ipynb file?

Thanks!

Sorry this is actually a bug being tracked here:
#9167

The way to get that dialog to disappear is to run 'Jupyter: Specify jupyter server for connections' and pick none.

@DonJayamanne's change will make it possible to only have the connection failure show up when running (instead of randomly)
