Hey!

I want to set a custom watermark in Microsoft Word (on a windows), but at the "select picture" / "upload photo from computer" window is frozen, nothing happen and not able to choose any photo from my desktop.

I used this function several times, I know how does it work.

Maybe it's a bug? I tried it 2 other computer at my work place and the same thing happen.

How could I solve this problem?

    A report from Microsoft today says developers are working on an update.

    There have been many posts about this issue today. It has been reported to Microsoft and we can expect a fix in the future (unclear exactly when, though).

    The workaround, suggested by Doug Robbins and Jay Freedman, is to click in the "Search Bing" box and press Enter. This generates an error message, in which you should choose the Work offline option. Clicking that option redirects to the standard Insert Picture dialog box which does operate normally.
