Windows 10, Office 365 Personal, both with all updates.
The subject line pretty much says it all. When a friend selects a cell, then the 'paint bucket' icon on the ribbon to add a fill color, no matter what color he chooses, the cell is filled with the selected color, BUT he also gets a 'marching ants' border, which he doesn't want. That border will disappear if he presses Esc. IOW, it's behaving as though adding a fill also copies the cells. This is an XLSX file, i.e. no macros.
Is this a new bug?
I found info in another thread suggesting it's a keyboard problem. He's tried a different keyboard. That doesn't fix it.
A Quick Repair of Office doesn't fix it.
He's sent me a copy of the workbook. I can't replicate the problem.
