Problem: After installing Notepad++ v8.1 under an user account (with admin privilege), then switch to another user account (with or without admin privilege), launch Notepad++ and turn dark mode on. The dark theme on edit zone won't be applied. Solution: Notepad++ installer copies all theme files in installed directory instead of "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes\". When theme is choosen or modified, it'll be saved in "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes\", and the saved theme file will override the original theme in installation directory. New behaviour of theme: Any theme selected via Style Configurator will be copied from its installation directory (C:\Program Files\Notepad++\themes\) into "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes\". If the theme exists in "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes", the original one in s installation directory (C:\Program Files\Notepad++\themes) will be ignored. Fix #10076, close #10077
