Kevin, very well said.
The KISS principle would have saved us customers lots of frustration.
Hello,
Thanks for your share. Yes, the Workaround which is to hold mouse for selecting the message with Time and sender you want then use CTRL+C for copy and CTRL+V for paste is useful.
It is somewhat useful, but it changes the formatting and includes a lot of extra content that needs to be deleted. Microsoft just needs to reinstate the functionality.
I too missed the part about click and hold the highlighted text while Cntl-C.
Hi Inema, Do you have any updates on this? As mentioned in my comment below (and pasted in this message bc, guess what, copy paste works in MS community even though it doesn't in MS teams :()) ... the holding the mouse button and use CTRL+C for copy and CTRL+V for paste does not work as expected. When will a fix for this be released so that we can copy and paste as we used to be able to do?
"'This doesn't work well at all though. It gets this weird formatting that is not usable for a straight copy paste, It pastes a preview of the message along with the entire message. I still have to do a bunch of editing. This is a garbage upgrade and needs to be fixed. The masses of people who copy paste are not using it for coding, that is an edge case and should not be the main focus of programming.
