Why in Teams you are unable to copy the time stamp and name of the person anymore.

Pressing Ctrl + C only lets you copy the conversation. I cannot give specific examples because my work is confidential but. This is the reddit post that is talking about the issue I am talking about. Copying Sender Information No Longer a Thing? : r/MicrosoftTeams (reddit.com)

    This works, ish.

    I hate how it copies it all crappy like

    Testing by NAME

    8:01 AM

    NAME

    Testing

    Testing 1 2 3 by NAME

    8:01 AM

    NAME

    Testing 1 2 3

    The cow jumped over the moon and they were ... by NAME

    8:01 AM

    NAME

    The cow jumped over the moon and they were really really really good jumpers

    It used to copy everything really neat and clean with timestamps in brackets next to the names and not the extra "..." lines when there was too much text.

    Microsoft - you really need to fix this NOW!

    Yet another vote here... it was always a bit random or seemed to be if you got the corrupted junk combination of text or the nicer formatted Name, Time and comments. What the hell is the use of comments like this from a chat I saw recently when copy/pasted: Now same with name & times.... hmm, heh we used to have that!

    We have got XY| going on at the moment, can you help.

    Yes I am looking at it

    Sadly, it is this users feeling Microsoft has lost touch with their users for many years. Features used by many are turned off. Our pleas to return features fall on deaf ears. If you turned off this feature you CAN turn it back on. This has created so much extra work for us... Please FIX and put a better committee together that evaluates these changes. These do not make your product better. Unacceptable... Documentation is KEY... You have taken away my ability to work smarter to work harder...
