vscode-vibrancy-continued: [Bug]: VSCode 1.86.0 on Windows is incompatible (blurry text when scrolling)
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
Current Behavior
An odd text-duplication effect when scrolling.
Expected Behavior
Working transparency and normal behavior, though that is not what I got.
Steps To Reproduce
I’m not sure how to reproduce this problem, but I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Vibrancy multiple times. I really don’t want to reinstall vscode.
Environment
- OS: Windows 11 Home 22H2
- VSCode: 1.86.0 (User Setup)
- Extension: 1.1.27
- Theme: Dark+
Anything else?

I’m able to reproduce this as well, probably caused by VSCode updating to Electron 27
Same here, began when I updated VS Code today.
EDIT: Downgrading to v1.85 fixed it for me, make sure to disable automatic updates before downgrading.
Set update mode to manual or none, then download and install
Updated the description with a notice, will look into providing a workaround by making the window non-resizable separately later
You have to downgrade to 1.85 for it to work right now, only option.
Hey @rsa16 , i am experiencing the exact same behavior here.
I beliecve it has begun when i dettached a vscode window.
As a workaround you can use the Apc Customize UI++ extension to use acrylic but for aforementioned reasons maximizing will disable the effect until you restart VSCode. While tedious, you can manually resize the window to take up the full width and height of a monitor and it doesn’t seem to break.

I’ve just released v1.1.29 which includes the workaround mentioned by @microhobby (thanks!), from my testing on Windows 11 the window remains resizable but cannot be snapped or maximized, third-party snapping software might still work though.
@illixion is there an ETA on when it’ll be fixed on 1.86? I’m on windows.
Using the “Disable Vibrancy” action in VSCode will restore everything to the original state, just disabling the extension doesn’t run the necessary code to undo the changes
Fixed for me too, Thanks! You have a place in Heaven.
@illixion wow… I feel like an idiot, I appreciate you. Thank you for dedicating the time for helping out with this package 😁
