Therefore I want to ask you, have you ever faced a situation in which the pictures cannot be displayed in the email messages of Microsoft Outlook? You receive a mail from your friend or a client that contains some pictures or images. But when you open it, you find that the text part can be viewed but the pictures cannot be displayed. What could be the reason behind this “cannot see images in outlook email” problem? Let’s get all the answers below in this article.
Generally, there can be certain causes due to which pictures cannot be displayed in Microsoft Outlook email messages.
Sometimes this could be occurred due to a weak Internet connection or if it is slow. When you click on a mail message to open it, if you do not see a Red X in the message but see a blank box-shaped picture or photo, this means the Show picture placeholders is enabled.
Here are some simple steps for different Outlook versions to resolve this error.
Applying the above steps will help you to see the images which are there in the Outlook email but the above steps are only suitable in the case you are using MS Outlook 2010 or 2010. If you are an Outlook 2007 user then these steps won’t work.
If you are using an older version of Outlook, there is an Internet Options setting which can be accessed from any of these: IE’s (Internet Explorer) Tools menu or Control Panel. In the Internet Options dialog box, go to the Advanced tab and check for the Show pictures option in the Multimedia group.
Now, you know how to deal with the problem when you are unable to see pictures in the Outlook Email message. There are two different solutions for this problem depending upon the version of MS Outlook you are using. The procedure is different from MS Outlook 2010 and 2007.
If still, you are unable to see pictures then there might be some problem with your email. All Outlook emails are usually stored in a PST file, therefore, you have to repair the PST file and I hope this initiative will resolve your issue. There are basically two methods for repairing a PST file, either you can use Inbox Repair Tool which is an inbuilt utility of MS Outlook or Try PST Repair Software if the PST file corruption is severe.
Now I would like to sum up things. I have given you the best techniques which can resolve your problem “I cannot see images in Outlook Email Messages”. If the manual techniques are unable to fix this error then you must give a chance to Inbox Repair Tool or PST Repair Tool. The best thing about this tool is that it supports all versions of MS Outlook so you only have to apply the same steps on any version of Outlook.
