Turns out, someone, definitely NOT me, unchecked a box that said - "View senders photos"
Must have happened during the update, because I never, never, never touch any of that stuff without some friend helping, as I'm an un-tech person. Everything worked Wednesday - happened Thursday during an "update" and never worked after it finished. Took me hours to find that one box, because it's really trial -error for me ... I open and look at everything, but touch nothing until I'm sure... Happy, frustrated camper tonight :) Thanks for responses guys !!!
Glad you got your problem fixed.
Reminds me of a problem I had last night with my Pixel 3 phone when I noticed that the screen had taken on this peachy/pink background unlike my usual bright while background. After checking everything in the display settings and gave up fixing it I accidentally noticed that the "nightlight" option was on that I had never noticed before. Turned it off and all was normal. It reminded me of my observation that the only thing wrong with a touch screen is that it is a touch screen. :)
Since you mentioned you have a Gmail account, I have to ask the question: Why do you use any Microsoft apps? I only use Windows on my laptop as a platform and have not used any Microsoft apps for years due to issues like yours. I am quite happy with Google apps. I wouldn't even use Windows for a platform except for a few non-Google essential apps for me that work on Windows but do not on Linux that I have on a desktop PC. Another advantage of Google apps for me is that they work on both Windows & Linux platforms.
