You appear to be using a legacy version of Illustrator.

In Illustrator CC you can highlight embedded images in the Links Panel and choose Unembed... fromt eh Links Panel Menu which will bring up the Save As dialog window allowing you to save the image separately.



If the image is indeed a link, you would highlight it in the Links Panel and choose Edit original... to open the original image in the appropriate application...



This is why I say you are working with an older version if Illustrator. Your Links Panel shows the images as embedded, However, you do not have the options possible in Illustrator CC.

If none of the above is possible... simply drag the .ai file to Photoshop and open it there. Then crop and save the images you need.

You can’t export linked images in AI. The linked window only shows a summary which lists all thumbnails that I linked in your AI document.

In case the original image exist on your computer, try the palette option: „Edit the original“ which opens the original image file in an image editing program.
