When using a capital L as an identifier in code, it's colored as a string
int L = 34;

However, when you use the L prefix for wchar_t strings, then it does NOT color it as a string
wchar_t * str = L"hi there";


Perhaps this was meant to be the other way around? Note that Visual Studio's own syntax highlighting does not consider the L prefix as part of the string, which may be what VA is trying to fix?

I am seeing the same effect here, thank you for the clear description:

case=32987

To be honest I don't know why is this happening but I changed the string color, and L changed as well in a line like

L;

so it is clearly colored as a string which is surprising...
