Default Grrrr. Word 2016 keeps chaning my default font color to red


I'm using Word 2016 desktop. I've changed the default font to black (or automatic) several times and saved it as the default and clicked OK. But for some reason it contines to change back to red.

When does the font change back to red color? During typing?

Even if the default font is set to Black or Automatic, individual styles can be set to other colors.

If you want someone here to take a closer look, you can upload a representative sample document in this thread.

Your document shows some tables. Is the red text appearing in tables or outside of tables?
