No longer able to paste from Excel

Question

I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro (64-bit). Before about a month ago, I was able to copy a table from Excel and paste it into Adobe as an image.

After an update (I'm not sure which one), that function has not been working. I've tried ctrl-v and right clicking in Adobe. Paste doesn't even show as an option.

A temporary workaround has been using the snipping tool on my computer to take a screenshot of the table, saving it as an image, and inserting the image into the PDF file in Adobe. This takes significantly longer than how we used to be able to do it and requires creating files for every table we want to copy and paste.

I've included a test table similar to ones we used to be able to copy and paste.
