With this when a rollover does take place the historic data will get altered?

Yes, the Back-Adjustment moves the data up or down for a particular contract month such that the chart looks like a continuous chart without any gaps where the rollover occurs. If you do not use the Back-Adjusted option, then this will not occur and the data will show the actual OHLC data for that contract at that time.

Is there a way to capture the historic OHLC values that does not change with rollover? if say the open price for GC on 09/27/2019 was 1690.5 anytime i open spreadsheet it should reflect this price?

Do not use a Back-Adjusted Continuous Futures Contract option. Instead of using "Volume Based Rollover, Back Adjusted", use "Volume Based Rollover".
