Shows the error -> Current Look and Feel

During installation, was asked if I wanted to import settings from 7.4. I answered yes. My 7.4 installation had Dark Metal L&F with Norway Today. 

After installation completed, windows appeared in a Windows standard L&F, until I opened a Java Editor, which showed up with (?) Norway Today. See attachment.

Looking at Tools->Options->Appearance->Look and Feel, it is still set to "Windows".. it should be like the setting in my 7.4 installation: "Dark Metal"

>>> This is probably because the Dark Themes plugin does not get pulled in during the installation, therefore import settings cannot properly set L&F to "Metal" because it does not (yet) exist.
