Text Color Remains Black and Unreadable Across All Dark Themes

[akikuno]

In my environment (WSL2-Ubuntu), when I switch to the dark theme, the text color remains black, making it barely unreadable. This happens with all dark themes. I have not done anything to override the settings in vscode specifically for text color.

I apologize if this issue has already been discussed, but I would appreciate any guidance on how to address this problem.

• Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
• VS Code Version: 1.88.1 e170252f762678dec6ca2cc69aba1570769a5d39 x64
• OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS on Windows 10 x86_64

I can't reproduce on 1.89.0 insiders (WSL)

Do you see this when you open VS Code locally - not connecting to WSL? Do you see this issue when you open any markdown, say release notes? Do you see this issue in all editors?

@mjbvz Any insights

Does this only happen after switching with the extension page already open? When if you try opening an extension page after switching themes?

Most likely, the problem is in the color theme

I deeply appreciate your comments.

After reviewing all of your comments, I rechecked my settings.json and found a typo in editor.fontFamily.

It was listed as \"Consolas instead of Consolas. After I removed the \", the text color turned white in all Dark themes.

Before (\"): Black font color

After (Remove \"): White font color

I'm not sure why, but thank you very much for your assistance!

It's good that everything was resolved.
