Changing theme on vs2022 affects vs2019 - themes

I installed DarkTheme2019. When I switch to it, it changes my VS2019 theme to "Blue". In VS2019, I switch back to "Dark" and then in VS2022 it goes from "Dark(2019)" to "Dark".
VS2022 at least kept the font change from "Dark(2019).
Is there a way to have the two Visual Studio's not be affected by what the other does?

It's a known issue: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/visual-studio-2022-setting-the-theme-in-2022-chang/1466144
It's not fixed yet (in Visual Studio 2022 version 17.1.0) regardless of what that page says.

There now (Sept 2022) appears to be a fix for this.
In the current VS 2022 (Version 17.3.4), go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Accounts and deselect the option to "Synchronize Visual Studio settings across devices and installs on this machine..."
Unchecking this option enabled me to have a theme for VS2022 different from the theme for VS2019.

Visual Studio Color Format Redundant Code

I have Visual Studio installed in one PC in which text editor is format redundant code by color (as shown in the screen shot).
I want to activate this in visual studio copy installed on another PC.
That is not a Visual Studio feature, it is one of ReSharper Code Inspection features, hence you'll need to install ReSharper on the computer where you'd like to see this code coloring...
This is a visual studio (mine is 2015) feature and should be enabled. By default it should be enabled, but am not sure what version of visual studio you are using. You can enable it by going to Visual Studio -> Tools menu -> Options

Visual Studio different settings for 2015 and 2017

I have VS2015 and VS2017 installed on my machine but I need to have different settings for them. However every time I change something in VS2015 the same configuration is applied in VS2017 and vice-versa.(Ex: on VS2017 I need to have the tab with 3 spaces and on VS2015 with 4 spaces)
Is there a way to break this?
Go to tools-->Options-->Environment-->Accounts to turn synchronization on or off for different settings categories on that computer.

Team explorer default resolve in VS2013

I am getting annoyed by having to change Resolve to Associate in Team Explorer
Is there a way to set it to Associate by default?
For visual studio 2013 this fixes the issue
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\Behavior]
"ResolveAsDefaultCheckinAction"="False"
And now available in the settings UI in Visual Studio 2015: https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/330519-team-services/suggestions/3418758-in-the-team-explorer-change-default-state-value-o
Visual Studio 2019
I came here seeking an answer for VS 2019, as apparently the registry 'hack' no longer works.
There is now an setting in Tools -> Options for this, under Source Control -> Visual Studio Team Foundation Server called Resolve associated work items on check-in.
Un-check it to associate by default. Check to resolve by default.

why does visual studio 2013 keep changing to dark theme

I have visual studio 2013 - professional and it keeps changing my theme from blue to dark.
Anyone have an idea why this is?
Yes, I was logged in with a corporate account that is shared between a couple computers.
It sounds like Synchronized Settings are enabled in your Visual Studio, therefore it is trying to sync theme and other settings across different machines.
Solution: In VS13, go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Synchronized Settings and then uncheck the "Enabled synchronization" box.

AnkhSVN on 64Bit Visual Studio

I am using AnkhSVN first time. On 32Bit Visual Studio 2010 Prof it works great.
Same installation with same project on a x64 Systems does not show the green hooks nor any SVN options.
It seems that it is not installed and shows all like before. Re-Installing has the same unusable effect. No errors.
I am not sure if it is because of x64 system or not.
Any ideas how it could work?
try by changing the Source Control Provider in the Visual Studio Options
Go to Tools -> Options -> Source Control and change Current Source Control Plugin to AnkhSVN.
