I just received a new computer at work and in switching from Excel 2010 to 2016 some of my workbooks haven't fared as well as others.

In one workbook that I use daily, I have several stacked area charts. All of the areas are gray with white borders. Even after I change the fill color, it appears gray with a white border. If I select one of the few suggested Chart Styles, there is color, but it doesn't look good. Is there any hope to get my old, good looking charts back?
