I think I have to disagree. I am experiencing the same issue with Spyder 2.2.5 as part of the winPython package. I can change the editor color scheme by manually editing the .ini file at
C:\Program Files\winPython\WinPython-64bit-2.7.5.2\settings\.spyder2\.spyder.ini to change the color_scheme_name field to match the color theme I'd like to use. However, the preferences pane allows no control over switching. Since changing this file updates the color scheme, is it possible that the preferences pane is not being passed the correct path to which to save the settings?
