This question is beyond my knowledge. I will invite Microsoft experts to answer this question and tell me how to modify the visx file. Before that, maybe you need to provide screenshots of your system version and Visual Studio 2019 version so that they can better locate the problem.
Can you try adding this to the manifest please
<InstallationTarget Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Pro" Version="[17.0, 18.0)">
<ProductArchitecture>amd64</ProductArchitecture>
</InstallationTarget>
Hi @jbollman7 thank you for sharing this issue. While there isn't a smooth way to turn a 2022 theme to 2019, there are a few workarounds.
Since 2019 doesn't have the fallback theme logic, the quality of the theme could be different if changing the manifest. With that being said, it is possible to change the manifest so that the theme can apply to 2019:
<InstallationTarget Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Community" Version="[16.0,17.0)">
<ProductArchitecture>x86</ProductArchitecture>
</InstallationTarget>
<Prerequisite Id="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.CoreEditor" Version="[16.0,18.0)" DisplayName="Visual Studio core editor" />
Another way which could work is using the Color Theme Designer 2022 and Color Theme Designer 2019. This method requires both Visual Studio 2022 and 2019, as well as both Theme Designer extensions.
While neither method is perfect, we are still working on improving the process of creating custom themes.
Hi, @jbollman7
Sorry for reply so late! I have update Eva Theme for VS last week. The first two version of Eva Theme for VS came out in a hurry. It was directly put on the MarketPlace, after converting from Eva Theme for VSCode. This update (0.0.3 version) not only supports the 2019 VS, but also fixes some bugs that are obviously unreasonable when used. In the process, I also encountered some problems that made me at a loss and stuck. That took me a few weeks' spare time.
Now you can download the installer file of Eva Theme for 2019 Visual Studio here. In fact, this file supports both 2019 & 2022 Visual Studio. But when I use this file to update Eva Theme for VS in the MarketPlace. The website shows an error warning.
I will ask Grace how to deal with this. Before that, you need to download the lastest version of Eva Theme for 2019 VS installer file on manually. The lastest 2019 version will always as the same to 2022 version in the MarketPlace.
Before you use Eva Theme for VS, it's better to have a look at the README. Hope you like it, and you are welcome to raise more issues. Thanks!
Thank you very much for this addition. The theme works perfectly on my VS Pro edition. Closing issue.

I really love your theme and I use it on VScode. It would be nice if it was available for VS pro as well, but definitely not a show stopper. Thank you for your hard work and wonderful theme.
