Visual Studio 2017 code color issue after upgrade

Question

I worked comfortably with the dark VS theme. Today I upgraded my VS to v.15.2(26430.4) , but suddenly ran into a visual problem.

The code colors in dark mode are terrible. I hardly see them clearly.

Any way to fix this? Thanks

Answer 1

I found some workarounds

• unchecking Enable rich client visual experience . And then restart VS.

2. Another way is to select the Light color theme and go back to Dark again.

Answer 2

Answer 3

It happened to me (among others)

Restarting VS fixed it. (No parameters change, just exit and run again.)

UPDATE: this is a feedback site on the site and should be fixed by updating to 15.2 (26430.06) (published May 12).

Answer 4

I am a virgin. in the Visual Studio team. There are currently two official solutions:

• Remove F # language support through the VS installer.
• Ctrl + Q and find the "theme" and select "Environment → General", and then switch from one theme to another and press "OK", then repeat and go back.

NOTE. Workaround No. 2 is temporary. Installing a new extension or update will return the colors back to their current state.

Answer 5

Restarting VS did not work for me.

I fixed it like this: In VS, go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> General -> Color theme . Switch to Light , click OK, and then return to Dark . After that, everything looked fine.
