Microsoft Visual Studio Change Default Theme

Question

I am finding it really hard to code using the black theme given in the visual studio 2012 IDE. Is there anyway i could get back the older grey theme or is there anyway i could make it look a bit more whiter ?

Answer 1

Tools -> Options -> Environment -> General -> Color Theme

or you could try to use Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor , it has pre built themes too.
