What operating system?

What version of InDesign?

What image types, some types, like large PSD files, or even tiny Jpegs, or is it PDF or Illustrator files?

 

One step that is common fix is to reset your preferences

Delete InDesign preferences with shortcuts
  1. Windows: Shift+Ctrl+Alt.
  2. Mac OS: Shift+Control+Option+Command.

Give the reset preferences a go - instructions and link in my last post.

 

Is it all files or just this file?

Just that file - use File>Export and choose IDML - and open that IDML file in InDesign (File>Open)
