    Maybe the color has been applied as shading and not as highlight. Try whether you can remove the color via Format > Borders and Shading > Shading tab.

    Highlighting applied via the Highlighting tool on the Home tab can be
    removed as follows: Select the whole document by pressing Ctrl+A and
    then click the arrow on the Text Highlight Color button and choose the
    "No Color."

    To remove font and paragraph shading you can run the following macro:

    Sub ClearAllShadingFromDoc()
    'Macro created by Stefan Blom, MVP, January 2015

    With ActiveDocument.Content.ParagraphFormat.Shading
    .Texture = wdTextureNone
    .ForegroundPatternColor = wdColorAutomatic
    .BackgroundPatternColor = wdColorAutomatic
    End With

    With ActiveDocument.Content.Font.Shading
    .Texture = wdTextureNone
    .ForegroundPatternColor = wdColorAutomatic
    .BackgroundPatternColor = wdColorAutomatic
    End With
    End Sub

    "Any non-shaded characters or spaces that you highlight will prevent Word from removing the shading"

    This is what I just experienced with Word 16 for Mac.

    Some people are saying the paragraph mark must be included in the selection, but that was exactly the wrong advice in my case.

    With paragraph mark included, I went to Borders and Shading and it said "No Color" for the Fill.

    But with paragraph mark excluded (only the shaded text was selected), Borders and Shading showed me the Fill color that I was trying to get rid of. Success!

    Do not copy and paste using the keyboard commands. Copy using the keyboard command CTRL X or CTRL C and then right click and paste choosing the "Keep Text Only format. That should solve the problem. Hope this helps


    Thanks- that worked for me!
