Stroke exporting transparent

I have a stroke that is not transparent in Illustrator but is transparent when exported. I even started over and drew a new stroke and it did the same thing. Doesn't matter what color it is. And it's only this one stroke, not others - any idea what is causing this?

Please select the stroke and show us a screenshot of it together with the Appearance panel. Also: how do you export?

Exported like I mostly do - as a PNG, type optimized, and a white background. I also attached a screenshot there too.

The stroke is set to "Overprint". In order to take that away please open the Attributes panel and uncheck Overprint stroke


Got it and it worked. Thank you. Is this a default setting in Illustrator? I've designed a lot in here but this is my first time encountering it.
