    Copying or exporting data directly from Data View in Power BI Desktop is not a supported or guaranteed feature, and recent Desktop updates have caused this behavior to stop working in some cases. That’s why nothing happens when you try to copy the table, even in Import mode. The recommended alternatives are to export data via Power Query, use a table visual with Export data, or use DAX Studio for reliable table dumps.

    You can also try using the DAX Query view
