Can't paste a scatter plot into word

I am using Excel and Word 2016 (student) and I made a graph into excel and then when I try to paste it into Word nothing happens. Similarly, when I am in word I try to insert a graph into it and it does nothing again. The weird thing is that it only seems to be the scatter plot graph. I can insert and copy from Excel pretty much every other graph type, except the scatter plot. I even tried to make a scatter plot in Excel, change the chart type, paste it in Word, and change it back to scatter plot. Which works in a way, but it makes me lose all the data so it's kinda useless. I already tried uninstalling it and reinstalling and still the same. I know its strange but any help is appreciated.

    If you send me a copy of the document and a copy of the Excel workbook, referencing this thread in the covering email message, I will investigate the issue.
