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)

    Except for the fact that it copies it like garbage and needs a lot of cleanup to be legible.

    Before it would actually copy line by line with name and timestamp (NEATLY!) and have returns between each message so as to easily read the conversation.

    Not ONLY did it do that, but if you copied conversation spanning multiple days it would actually include context as to when you wrote the messages like "Yesterday" and "Today" in the chain as well, it was awesome and now it royally sucks.

    Agreed. What are their IT support doing? Dumb change.

    Worst update since the CrowdStrike update glitch.

    this new Update in Teams is not very good because if you use this work around it makes the copy/paste all jumbled up when copying an chunk of the thread/conversation back and forth. So when using this copy/paste work around, you would have to only copy/paste each chat individually one and a time. I switched back to the old teams for now until they fix this
