added the windows 10 location when loaded as an app, and that it does not seem possible to edit this file when installed in this location.
It turns out that the theme.txt configuration file is not located alongside the preferences.txt file, but alongside/under the Arduino application's .jar files. Thus, for the current version (1.6.3):
- on OS X,
.../Arduino-1.6.3.app/Contents/Java/lib/theme/theme.txt - on Win7,
C:\Program Files\Arduino\lib\theme\theme.txt - on Linux,
.../arduino-1.6.3/lib/theme/theme.txt - on Windows 10, when installed as an App, C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\ArduinoLLC.ArduinoIDE_1.8.10.0_x86__mdqgnx93n4wtt\lib\theme\theme.txt, however it does not seem possible to edit it - it can be opened in notepad++ but a save fails.
See an associated Github issue, IDE Background and print color options needed, for a little more discussion.
