Microsoft Teams Copying Name, Timestamp, and Message

I used to be able to copy a series of teams messages and it would include the Username, timestamp and the message, but now it only includes the message. I did not change anything about the way I'm copying. I need to be able to copy and paste this data for my work. I have already deleted the MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe file to clear cache, and I've reset and repaired the app. I have had no luck in getting this ability back. We should have the choice of including this data in clipboard or not.

Example of what it used to look like:

[Yesterday 8:15 AM] James Smith

Message

[Yesterday 8:30 AM] John White

Message

[Yesterday 9:30 AM] Jackson Taylor

Message

Example of what it looks like now:

Message

Message

Message

Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Teams for business | Chats | Group chats

    That work around does not work properly - the formatting and accuracy is dreadful.

    Microsoft desperately needs to create a way to export or copy conversations in a legible format.
