My Color Palette Reduced to 13 and will not Reset
My color palette reduced to 13 colors and won't reset through the
tools/options/color reset function. I've tried messing with the settings on my machine, nothing. I've tried looking around for a "reinstall color palette" for ms excel function. Found a ton of payable plugins, but nothing free for ms excel. Do I need to reinstall the whole app? |

What happens when you try resetting the colors--do you get an error message?
Can you open another workbook and then copy the colors from that one? Is it just a single workbook with the problem or all workbooks? This is a guess... If it's all workbooks, have you been playing with any windows setting that would change the number of colors that can be displayed?

Thanks, Dave, for responding so quickly.
I get no error; nothing happens. It's for all workbooks. It gives me the option to load a color palette from a different workbook, but they're all the same. I can add colors and replace the blank cells, but I'd really like to be able to just re-import the color palette because I have so many documents color-coded and I'd just be guessing. My font colors are okay, no problem there. I did resize my monitor earlier, but found no problem at that time. |

Another guess...
Maybe it's a windows setting... Under Control Panel|Accessibility Options|Display Tab Is "use high contrast" checked? If yes, uncheck it.
