AAHHH! I just upgraded to PowerPoint for Mac, Office 2016, and I'm getting this same error. I spent a whole week on a presentation that I'm doing to tomorrow and almost all of my images have disappeared. THIS IS TERRIBLE! I'm not sure what I'm going to do. 

'The image part with relationship ID rId2 was not found in the file'

Is there a fix for this?? Preferably before tomorrow morning? These are all images that I either created or pulled as screen shots. (All jpegs.) 

PLEASE HELP!

    Thanks.  I'll get with the users who build the slides and have them not put dashes on the picture names and see if that works.

    I discovered by accident that this happens whoever the name of the image has a dash instead of an underscore. I changed the names - voila- they all appear.

    One thing that is mysterious is the version of PowerPoint being asked about. Please go to the PowerPoint menu and choose About PowerPoint. You should have version 15.19. If not, then install the updates and test to see if the problem has already been taken care of by an update.
