While your screen shots make it look a bit "chunky", the change in the mouse cursor is what is to be expected as a result of the change in functionality when you left click.

 when over a picture, right clicking will bring up a context sensitive menu

 Left clicking and dragging will allow you to vary the row height

Clicking on the + will insert a row.

Hope this helps,

Based on what you've mentioned, the issue seems to have happened after installing that other software that you said you needed. Indeed, there may be a compatibility issue between Office, and what you have installed. Will it be okay if we ask what software or app was that?

We're just here for your reply.
