Attributes associated with blocks not retaining individual colors in tool palett

I download a dwg drawing of a lighting unit and create a block.  I use create an attribute with that units name and use the white color.  I then add attributes, coloring each one of them differently and save that as a block.  I then try to take that block and either copy/paste or use design center to put each block I have created with attributes into tool palette.  Most of these blocks I have in my tool palette retain the individual colored attributes but some just turn some or all the attributes white.  I have tried the "Manage Attributes", "Block Editor" and "Enhanced Attribute Editor" to return the attributes to their created colors but have no luck. I do have a drawing of all my blocks with colored attributes and when I copy/paste those to a new drawing they work, but not if I try to create a tool palette.   I am very new to AutoCad and am teaching myself.  Am I doing anything wrong or does this have to do with the Windows 10 update problem?  I saved each block as I created it and then saved it again after I added the attributes with colors.  Any help would be appreciated.
