There was a bug in 24.0 where we couldn't copy shapes from Photoshop over to Illustrator that should have been fixed in 24.0.1.

I've completely re-installed Illustrator with this 24.1 version, but I can't copy the shapes over again anymore.

I've tried the options given here:

But it didn't work for me

Could you add svg export option for whether to includ <title> block or not? You've removed it completely, but my current workflow relies on it. I understand some people don't want <title> block, but it's not an illegal svg element, and it exists for a reason. Please allow user to choose. Thank you!
