I am not able to copy and paste Teams message with Time and sender name

Microsoft Teams is trash. Ever since this update to supposedly remove clutter it has created a nightmare for me where I have a lengthy chat log I provide to my usergroup and no one who says what. I hate Microsoft for this. You can't even highlight all the chat in the chat log to copy, it chooses how much of it gets highlighted and never preserves the point you started off with highlighting so you have to find the point where you left off. NIGHTMARE. I tell the 2000 users in the group every month how horrible Microsoft is for this. Zoom for 10 years automatically sends you an email with the chat log. No option for that in Teams, only 2 hours worth of worth to copy and paste. Co-Pilot can't even understand the problem I am asking it for help on. I curse Microsoft for making my life hell!

As of today, even this unwieldy solution (holding down mouse, while selecting change and CTRL-C) no longer works. UGH!!!!

It "works" but it doesn't work. Still doesn't copy usernames and when there is a reaction to a comment in some cases the emoji pastes about a hundred times, one per line so it takes up a page and a half. We're going to leave for Google or Zoom if Microsoft does not fix.

The workaround quit working in the desktop app for me 2025-02-21 ~1310CT. I did find that I could open Teams in a web browser (using Opera for this) - and, am still able to use the terrible copy trick from there in order to get the information I need. Even after a desktop app restart and a computer restart, the copy trick is no longer working in the desktop version.
