I can not insert image file into Visio 2013 (INSERT > PICTURES > (any graphic formats .png, .jpg, etc). It gave me message state "Import of image file failed: '[name of the image file]'. 

Please help. 

Thank you.

    Me Too! I even took a Visio class and the instructor is unable to figure it out. I tried contacting Microsoft but was told I had to open a ticket. I get Visio through work so I don't have a product key and it's required to submit a ticket. This after a frustrating phonecall with a CSR with a definite language barrier. I spent 5 minutes trying to get him to understand the name of my company!

    I have not found a solution to this problem.  I don't think Microsoft is working on it.  My work around was to create a new user account on the PC and use that account when I need to import image files.  I have another new Laptop that does not have this problem "yet".  I continue to monitor this thread to see if someone (Microsoft?) finds the root cause and fixes it.

    Good luck!

    I am having the same issue.... Anyone found a fix for this?  I can also log into an older user account on the machine and Visio works?  While this works it's very annoying.
