When I am adding data to an Excel 2016 spreadsheet, Excel is automatically adding thick outside cell borders in the line I am working on. This is now happening to all my Excel 2016 worksheets. How do I turn off this automatic thick outside border? it is not selected. All Rules have been cleared in the Conditional Formatting, as well, yet Excel still inserts thick outside borders every time I enter data into any cell.
