Keep with next - if the next text is table does not work anymore
In a quick test, I observed nothing strange here, using a built-in heading style and a table immediately below the heading paragraph.
Did you make sure that there were no blank paragraphs between the heading and the first table row? Click the ¶ icon on the Home tab to view all nonprinting marks.
If you want to, you can share a sample document which illustrates what you see.
Stefan_Blom OK, so I re-did the test under Windows 11 (22H2 22579.1) and the "keep with next" functionality is indeed broken. Here is a short clip demonstrating the issue. The table sticks together nicely, but the title does not. (on the link the clip is not compressed to heavily like on the gif below).

I see the issue in your clip. Can you also share a sample document in Word format? You can upload it to OneDrive or Dropbox and post a "share" link in the thread.
Interestingly, in the online version of Word the Table title is shown on the second page, whereas at the same time, on the desktop version it is at the bottom of the first page.
I have also created another video showing the strange behaviour, adding only gif this time, should be enough. That the Table title appears twice is not a video glitch, it really does happen.
In the web browser version of Word, the display is often less reliable. The reading view is more accurate.
Here, I am not seeing a glitch when I open the document in the full version of Word (version 2202, Office 2021, running under Windows 11). Deleting/adding a paragraph mark on the first page will move the title + the table back and forth between the pages in the expected manner.
yes, the same document behaves normally in the same version of MS Word on my other machine with Windows Server 2019, but shows this strange behavior under Windows 11
