Sorry, Chris, I lost this out of my sight.

I don't see anything immediately wrong. Maybe it is a specific MS Windows issue I cannot reproduce here in GNU/Linux.

@Helmut any ideas ?

Good afternoon Moritz - thank you for the feedback :)
I've been able to get GRASS 7.8 running with msys on my pc so I can send images etc. now... I tried repeating what I had done at work and I have the same results ... I also downloaded the Spearfish dataset as you suggested and brought in the boundary_county vector. I can go into Properties and fill color orange and outline gray, but I go to the console and do the d.vect map=boundary_county color=red fill_color=orange and all I get is the red boundaries.I attached an image of everything ... the Layer Manager, the Display window, the msys console window with my commands run and all my exported GRASS variables, and the resultant png image. I've tried this with several other polygon vector files and I get the same darn thing.  Can you see anything wrong with my variable settings ?

I'm not really sure what 'area' in the output of v.category actually
refers to, as areas cannot have categories in GRASS GIS.

In order to see if you have areas in your file, check with v.info:

In order to find out if the issue comes from your data or from your
installation of GRASS GIS, you can also download the NC demo data set
from https://grass.osgeo.org/download/data/#NorthCarolinaDataset <https://grass.osgeo.org/download/data/#NorthCarolinaDataset >and try
to reproduce what I did in order to see if it works.
