Excel added a 2nd quick access toolbar and changed top portion of worksheet to gray
Hi,
This helped me with the same issue in my Excel 2016:
1. Type and launch Regedit in the windows search window.
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\ExternalFeatureOverrides\excel
3. In the parameter "Microsoft.Office.UXPlatform.FluentSVRefresh" change the value "true" to "false".
Good luck!

- Hi Maxim, although your suggestion does fix the "2nd toolbar", it also makes the Excel icon on the far left of the title disappear. As such, I come to the conclusion that the save icon outside the toolbar, isn't part of the toolbar itself but a glitch performed on the last update probably. My work Excel 365 isn't updated and doesn't have this issue. My home Excel 2016 though, is updated, and has this same behavior. Also no other Office app has this issue. Hopefully they'll fix it with the next update.
RESOLVED!!
WOW!!! That worked!!
Thank you Maxim!!
Bonus point question: Any idea how/why that setting was changed, or what was the underlying cause of this?
