    Search function is broken in Windows Explorer -> Libraries -> Documen


    Check screenshot for more details.

    Search function works just fine, for example, in Drive D or E.

    Hello dda,

    Double check to make sure that the Windows Search service is set to Started and Automatic. If disabled, you could still do a non-index search in normal Windows Explorer folders, but libraries require the index for search to work in them.

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn
