Pictures in MS Word (version 16.4) are replaced by blank rectangles. How can I ensure that the pictures show up?

I have Word (version 16.4) documents with pictures within them.

When I open these documents, the pictures are not seen. Instead, I see empty rectangles.

How can I ensure that the pictures show up correctly as they should?

    Your question is not related to System Center Service Manager (tag "msc-service-manager-setup").
    For questions related to MS Word you should add the tag "office-word-itpro" and remove the tag "msc-service-manager-setup".

    Kind regards

    To solve this issue in Word 2016, you can use Paste Special through this combination (Alt + Ctrl + V). This lets you choose to paste as Bitmap. Try this out, hope it will resolve your issue.
