SYMPTOMSYou double-click a picture in Word 6.0, it opens in the Word Picture Editor, and when you close it, your picture has changed size. CAUSE
If you set your default picture editor to MSDraw and then remove
MSDraw from your system or move it to a different location, the Word
6.0 Picture Editor will be loaded when you double-click a picture.
When you close the Word 6.0 Picture Editor, your picture will have
changed size because the Picture Editor scales pictures differently
than MSDraw.

Update the REG.DAT file by remerging the WINWORD6.REG file located in
the Word for Windows directory. Here are the steps to do this:
MORE INFORMATION
This problem occurs because the REG.DAT file is no longer up to date
once you remove MSDraw from your system or move it to a different
location. When you double-click a picture in Word, your system tries
to find the default editor, MSDraw, but cannot. Therefore, it defaults
to the Word 6.0 Picture Editor.
