Teams Chat - copy/paste

THis option stopped working a few weeks ago and I have not been able to identify another solution. The forward feature is ***********ABSOLUTELY********** useless!!!!!! No one has to only capture a time stamp on a single message. We have to capture discussions that sometimes span a week or more. Microsoft please do something to correct this and provide a workflow to capture with and without metadata. THIS IS URGENT AND CAUSING SERIOUS PROBLEMS FOR CORPORATE USERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MS's behaviour is another example that monopolists do not care. I am not sure anyone at MS is actually even assigned to analyzing the feedback from the users. Even if there's, it's likely to be a n outside vendor somewhere in India whose management is not interested in sending negative f/back to the HQ because the "bosses" do not like seeing negative things.

Quick question to Microsoft - Why is the MASSIVE amount of negative feedback regarding this change being ignored?

We're told to post feedback to get changes considered by Microsoft. This has been done on countless occasions.

We're told to upvote feedback posts to get greater consideration. Some of those posts have enormous amounts of upvotes.

However, to date I have seen no acknowledgement from Microsoft that this is an issue that they need to address. I understand that there were a few people that wanted this change to begin with but there was no consideration about the countless others who need the metadata. This was a gross overcorrection and if a simple switch cannot be added to settings for users to select how they want copy/paste to work, it should be reverted! At least before the few people who did not want the data could choose to delete it. Now we have NO OPTION AVAILABLE to get this data.

This is a major issue for all Tech employees at my company, and we need the time stamp to document work. An original workaround was to select and hold the mouse button while selecting Control+C; however, that is now no longer working. The forward option is not feasible due to you can only forward 1 comment at a time and often need to capture hundreds of comments for conversations spaning multiple days. This is critical functionality Please advise on how to copy metadata in Teams chat.

Ha, this is probably like 5,000 man-hours of work, too costly... :-)
