How can I reset the changings, i have done in Kate on a non KDE desktop?
In Settings under Configure Kate in Fonts & Colors i mistakenly changed Vim(dark) to "Use KDE Colour Scheme" The Problem is, that it overwrote Vim.

A Kate developer here: There is no option for that in the user interface.
Resetting all configuration can be done by removing configuration files. What you are probably looking for are kateschemarc and katesyntaxhighlightingrc that are in your home folders: Probably in ~/.config5/ (Plasma 5), or ~/.kde/config (KDE 4). If you delete (or move) these files, your highlighting information is reset to the default.
Update 2021-01-25: Kate (more precisely KTextEditor) versions released in 2021 have a redesigned theme support. Kate will ship with many themes by default, see https://kate-editor.org/themes/. In addition, the themes that are shipped by default cannot be changed. These have to be copied first.
