Close, resize and minimize buttons not visible, but functional. Excel 2019
 I've tried all recommendations to make the buttons visible including doing a reinstall. Still having the problem. The rest of the top bar is visible.             Any ideas?

Try the following:
- Quit Excel completely if it is currently active.
 - Hold down the Ctrl key while you start Excel.
 - Click Yes when asked whether you want to start Excel in Safe Mode.
 
Does the problem still occur?
