My Formula Bar background is Blue and the text is Black. How do I change the Formula Bar background to white or no color?

I just had this issue and we fixed it by changing my theme color on my desktop. Under the control panel and appearance.. once I changed the color of my theme/background it changed they color of my "system" which changed the color of my formula bar in Excel.. very dumb but.. it worked...Juliano-Petrukio RetiredOldMan

This is new for me and I suspect that it is more related to your Operational System setup than Excel configuration.
The highlighted spots, their colors come from the Operational system.
