How to Remove Filter by Color in Excel (5 Methods)

We have a dataset where we already applied Filter by Color. We want to remove the Filter by Color execution. In this case, we only applied the Filter for the City Column.

How to Remove Filter by Color in Excel: 5 Easy Ways

Method 1- Using the Filter Icon Option to Remove Filter by Color

• Click on the Filter Icon.
• Choose Clear Filter From “City”. As only the City column is subjected to filtration, Excel only allows the defiltration of data from that column.

• Excel clears the Filter by Color or any other filtration and returns the data as it was prior to the filtration.
