Unable to change theme in VS Code?

Time:12-04

am not getting any error or anything, but VS code by default always switches to a Dark (default dark), even if in my system setting I have selected Light theme (I have a MacBook Air). This is too much frustrating and I also uninstalled and installed VS Code 2-3 times and am unable to change the behaviour. Please let me know if you need any additional info with this question, I will provide it.

An additional point on this problem, when I press CMD , to open setting, and under appearance, I change the Color Theme, it let me change. And then when I open a file (a python file suppose) or just switch to an opened file it changes back to Dark (default dark). I don't know how to solve this behaviour. Please help.

I think VS Code is just doesn't follow the system theme (I observed this in my Windows 10 machine). Also cmd , is not the place to change VS code theme.

You can try CmdP and enter >color theme to select a theme.

VS code doesn't follow system theme, do cmd K, then let go of K while holding cmd and press T. Or you can cmd K THEN cmd T. There you will get a menu where you will get your color options. Please upvote is helpful.
