Word won't paste images from web?

After copying the image in the web browser, go to Word and click the down arrow on the Paste icon (Home tab), select Paste Special, then select Device Independent Bitmap.

This happens with images that are produced from binary data, in the "data:image/ext;encode,binary" format.

There's nothing that can be done for Microsoft Word but you can use LibreOffice and then past from LibreOffice into Word.

What worked for me after I’ve tried all instructions and recommendations without success was to restore advanced settings in the internet properties. To do so open internet properties in Control Panel -> Tab Advanced -> Click on Restore Advanced Settings button.

In my case some websites with hyperlinks from others sources didn’t show the images, however if the images were in the same domain they’re displayed properly.
