📄 Description

Summary

  • code --reload-window does a hot reload that doesn't trigger Custom UI Style's CSS patching
  • Changed the Windows install script to fully close VS Code (Stop-Process) and relaunch it, so the extension initializes fresh and applies its patches
  • Added a fallback message telling users to run Custom UI Style: Reload from the command palette if CSS customizations don't appear

Test plan

  • Run install.ps1 on Windows — verify VS Code closes and relaunches with full CSS customizations applied
