I HATE your default track changes feature.

[Guest]

I cannot believe the amount of time I (and many others in my organization)
spend on trying to eliminate tracked changes. I would rather not have the
feature at all than have it as a default that has to be dealt with every
time. Get rid of it!

It _isn't_ the default. Track Changes is a feature that
has to be activated
in the Tools Menu for each and every document in which it
is to be used. If
you & your 'many others' don't like it, don't turn it on.

There's also a keystroke sequence (control-shift-e) that
turns track changes on and off. Somebody may be hitting that
accidentally. Possibly someone is (unwittingly) clicking on
the "TRK" button at the bottom of the screen just right of
center.
