Holy Cow! Unable to search files in File Explorer!

Win11 Home: Rebooted and still cannot search files. It finds nothing, no matter what. Any idea what could have caused this or what I should do? Thanks.

    Update: I finally found a recommended tool on Reddit called ISOMate7. (https://www.wizzgear.com/isomate7.html).  It allows me to download different versions of Windows 7 ISO image files completely, the download speed is fast, and there are no ads or suspicious links! You can use it with confidence!
