Windows 10: The images are not displayed on Insert Online Pictures of Excel

I wanted to insert an online picture on my Excel or Word file, when I chose a category for example Airplane, but the images are not displayed see the screenshot below. I reset all my browsers, it didn't work, the images are still not displayed. Whereas the issue didn't happen in the new user profile. so I think as it may be related to my current user profile when I set up Windows preferences. As every time when I log into the computer with the new user profile, Windows ask me many questions to set up. I don't remember which preference I chose during the set-up that led to the issue.

Windows version 1809 - excel displays new comment instead of insert comment

Did all of the steps you suggested and the drop down list still does not show "insert comment" HOWEVER when I select "new note" from the dropdown list, it works the same as "insert comment". I think the engineers changed the title. Also at the top
of the excel screen is a field "tell me what you want to do"; if you type in insert comment, the insert comment window comes up and looks exactly like the window when you select "new note". As you suggested, I will send feedback to the engineers. Thank
you for your help.

Unable to insert COM object as picture

In Windows 10 I am unable to insert object as picture. It shows only icon.

To reproduce the issue:

1. Open for example wordpad or any other application which supports object embedding.
2. Choose insert object.
3. choose insert from file
4. Choose any jpeg picture.
5. File is inserted but shows as icon only. This is regression from Windows 7 as previously it was possible to insert directly as picture.

Workaround is to insert Paintbrush object then open image and copy paste in paintbrush but it is very inconvienent. It seems the crappy Microsoft Photos app is interfering with this but not sure how to uninstall it.
