This error appears every time I save file or open a file.

Error loading colour scheme Packages\User\MonokaiGrayDL.tmTheme: Unable to open Packages\User\MonikaiGray.tmTheme

I searched about it but those solutions are for sublime text 2...please help

And I don't have Live Css Package.user3454011
Sometimes solutions that work for ST2 will work for ST3 as well. Have you tried something already ?Chnossos
Most solutions say the problem is the Live CSS and I don't have it. One solution says it's the parse error of xml but I can't even find that file...user3454011
Did you try to install a theme manually ? I found this if it can help you ...Chnossos
Uh..No it still doesn't workuser3454011

Menu > Sublime Text > Preferences > Settings - User> remove the line with `"color_scheme"`.

After saving the line was regenerated for me with a reference to a theme that actually exists.

You need to put the theme file inside Packages\Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package.

Open Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package with 7 zip (archive tool-you may use your favorite tool), and drag Monokai Gray.tmTheme into it. Then go to Sublime, and click Preferences -> Color Scheme and find Monokai Gray. When you choose the color scheme, it automatically updates the setting with this:

"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/MonoKai Gray.tmTheme",

Note: I am using Sublime 3. I am not able to share my screen shot due to lack of reputation.

Sometimes, a couple of opened files ignores color schemes settings modifications, I had the same bug then ran this in the ST3 console :

[ v.settings().erase("color_scheme") for views in [ w.views() for w in sublime.windows() ] for v in views ]

This python code is pretty self explanatory.

With this, no need to close/re-open incriminated files for the bugs to go away.

This happened to me after installing Compare Side-By-Side. The error message specified that SBSCompareTheme.theme could not be found. I don't remember the exact sequence of events, but I remember that at some point, I uninstalled the plugin, and the error message kept appearing.

It turns out that the theme file was referenced in the Local/Session.sublime_session file (~/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Local/Session.sublime_session under OSX).

I edited that file by hand to remove any reference to the theme file, and the problem went away!

I am using Sublime Text 3. I remove ColorHighlighter and it works.

This happens to me every now and then when my theme in use is being updated via Package Control. Try switching to a different theme, optionally remove and re-install Monokai Gray, then switch back to it.

I was having a similar issue with certain files/syntaxes after deleting a package (MarkdownEditing).

My issue was that some packages creates a syntax-specific *.sublime-settings file (Markdown.sublime-settings in my case). The file is location in Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User.

This settings-file overwrites your color-scheme settings elsewhere. Removing it solved the issue.

That's easy! Click Preferences ->Setting-User

you'll find your "color_scheme" attribute is your error message. change it with a exist ".tmTheme" file.

I was getting similar error for the package PlainTasks. By renaming the folder PlainTasks-master to PlainTasks and restarting Sublime resolved the issue.

Copy the source code of the .tmTheme file from Github.

Open your non-working .tmTheme file with Sublime text.

Paste contents, save and restart Sublime text.

GO to Preferences->Browse Packages->User->open HTML.sublime-settings then remove the line with "color_scheme" and save it. if it doesn't work, just open PHP.sublime-settings instead of HTML.sublime-settings and do the same thing.
