This seems to be a bug, the search box and the Quick Launch menu are not conmnected as far as I know. I recommend you to open a support ticket

The design of the Modern sites was updated to move the search box to be above the navigation that has resulted in this problem.&nbsp; When you turn the quick launch off, it removes the left navigation element including that search box.&nbsp; Definitely log this with Microsoft as this scenario must have been missed in testing.

I wasn't aware of this! Definitively  a mistake, in my opinion, in the design of modern sites

Thank you!I opened a ticket describing this.

This is not a bug. See below the return of the ticket opened at Microsoft:&nbsp;"By disabling "Quick Launch" in the SharePoint site settings, it is normal for the search bar to disappear from the home page of the site, precisely because "Quick Launch" is designed to aid site navigation, and by default&nbsp;it is enabled when creating a new site.However, the search bar will still be enabled in document libraries so that you can search for folders and files.&nbsp;If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know."
