VS code theme color is changed automatically

today

Above is today's color theme. Please see variable name SideMenu.

Few days ago

And another one is a picture which is taken few days ago.

You can see SideMenu color is different. It's not a problem of styled-components theme. Because every static variable's name's colors are changed.

It's not first time. few weeks ago, I had this experience and it's very annoying. Why the color theme of vs code (This is default Dark+ Theme) is changed automatically? I feel very unfamiliar with this color, and I want to stop the changing and hope to go back previous color.

How can I do that and Why this happens?

Please enter your settings.json file for clear question. There might a code snippet like "workbench.preferredDarkColorTheme": "Default Dark+ Experimental" or "workbench.colorTheme": "so and so" in the settings.json. You have to remove this, because this might set your default theme to some preset theme. So, you will not be able to change your Color Theme on a fresh start.

Ah! This is due to activation of Semantic Highlighting

You can disable or enable it to to get the coloring you want. Usually its enabled for default themes. If you disable it, you will get your old colors back.

You can disable/enable it here

semantic highlighting

Or you can add "editor.semanticHighlighting.enabled": false to settings.json

The is an option explorer.autoReveal in settings (either user or workspace) which controls if the explorer should automatically reveal files when opening them.

  1. Open VS User Settings (Preferences > User Settings). This will open two side- by-side documents.

  2. Add a new "explorer.autoReveal": false setting to the User Settings document on the right if it's not already there. This is so you aren't editing the Default Setting directly, but instead adding to it.

  3. Save the User Settings file.
