Why can't SynthWave 84 enable Neon Dreams on windows?-CodePudding

I am installing the synthWave 84 theme for VS Code but when I turn on neon it gives an error: You must run VS code with admin privileges in order to enable Neon Dreams.I tried running VSCode as admin but still not working!

I changed this on the file extension.js and worked for me:

Path: C:\Users\"YourUserName"\.vscode\extensions\robbowen.synthwave-vscode-0.1.11\src

    const htmlFile =
        base  
        (isWin
            ? "\\electron-sandbox\\workbench\\workbench.html"
            : "/electron-sandbox/workbench/workbench.html");

    const templateFile =
            base  
            (isWin
                ? "\\electron-sandbox\\workbench\\neondreams.js"
                : "/electron-sandbox/workbench/neondreams.js");

So, as you can look where it is written "electron-sandbox", it was "electron-browser" before.

After saving these changes, you run as administrator and try again, then it should work.
