Unable to install theme on Windows machine with McAfee anti-threat protection due to dependency `uc.micro` #36

Open bhatmand opened 1 year ago

bhatmand commented 1 year ago

I use vscode on my work laptop, which has McAfee suite of threat protection software installed.

I am not able to install this theme because it has dependency on the package uc.micro and since McAfee threat protection software considers it a threat, it blocks the installation.

I have discussed this issue with my work IT team and requested them to add an exception, but I was turned down stating that this is a corporate decision and cannot be modified on user request.

I wanted to check if its possible for you to get this theme working without using the dependency package uc.micro?

Thank you
