r/VisualStudio on Reddit: One Dark Pro theme for Visual Studio 2026
November 14, 2025 -
Hello everyone!
I switched to VS2026, but my daily-driver theme One Dark Pro wasn’t working correctly anymore — some colors were broken and the new UI didn’t match the original look.
So I decided to fix it myself, and now I’m releasing it. :)
One Dark Pro 2026 is a lightly updated and corrected version of the classic theme, adapted specifically for the VS2026 color engine. Same aesthetic, but with proper contrast, fixed keys, and better consistency across the new UI.
I also included a simple VSIX build script, so you can edit the YAML and rebuild your own customized version easily.

Almost everything related to themes is more broken than before. Editor appearance option is completely broken (it modifies not just the editor but the code color too overriding selected code theme making it pointless and annoying, and worse so does so super bad, the option match theme doesnt seem to work), installing any theme from the market completely blocks opening VS with "visual c++ project system package" error. I am going back to vs 2022 and not coming back soon. Also the fonts are still tied to code theme (i.e. changing theme will also change font you used last time with that same theme). Frickin insane.

November 15, 2025 - First of all, I use a dark theme and I would not have Copilot in the right pane by default. Before I changed to the Unity Project pane, I asked Copilot: “How do I set dark mode?” It gave plenty of answers. In a trice, we were good. Although there was no option to “just do it,” it did offer a script. It also offered screenshots for 2026, so at least it knew the version for sure.
