Here is the solution:

Microsoft included a security feature in one if the latest security updates (968095 MS10-105):

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2479871/security-settings-for-graphic-filters-for-microsoft-office-365

To re-enable the import of eps images:

Open regedit.exe:

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\Common\

Add the keys manually: Security\AllowLists\GraphicsFilterImport

Add the values:

AllowListEnabled REG_DWORD 0x00000001 (1)

EPSIMP32.FLT REG_SZ 2012.1600.4309.1000

RegEdit

In my installation insert of eps images in MS Word was possible again.
