Hey, I used to new config files one with the extension .config and one with the .config file whice I had copy-paste what this site says and like you did it multiple times. and as to your question "almost everything else", I ment by that that I chose to transfer all the themes by checking all the boxes and than clicking tranfer and save.
UPDATE: reinstalled Code::Blocks, still dosen't works.
UPDATE 2: when I'm applying any theme I get this:SpellChecker: Thesaurus files 'C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\share\codeblocks\SpellChecker\th_en_US.idx' not found! I know it dosen't connected because this is spellchecker but maybe it's stopping the themes from applying.
the .conf download link:

the .config downlload :

You create a new file in CB to test the theme; what file extension does that have?
Do you select the theme inside of Code::Blocks?
--- Quote ---Settings --> Editor --> Syntax Highlighting and in the Colour theme chose kft2
--- End quote ---
If you do, does the theme appear [to] work in the bottom window?

Yeah not working.
I had it working on 17.12 mingw version (the latest) on my C drive, but when i reinstalled to an external drive (D:), the config file wasn't in the 'C:\Users\[USER]\AppData\Roaming\CodeBlocks'-folder, but in the 'D:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks'-folder.
After following the guide, and using cb_share_config on the default.conf on the D: drive location; doing 'settings>>editor>>Syntax Highlighting' on the bottom window, the colors do change.
But the main editor doesn't change, not even with a reboot.
I tried making a new project, without success on running the theme...
*Windows 10 Home 64bit, 16GB RAM, N5000 CPU, 32GB of free SSD space left on C, and a few terabytes on D.
Edit: seems like I also don't get a blank window to code in. Something appears broken.
I'll reinstall.

Are you using the cb_launcher script? If you're not then the config file should always be read/written from your user's folder.
