Suddently, can't search in Bridge anymore - No results

Hey guys!

So I was searching all over the Internet to find something to fix my problem and I didn't find so... here I am!

Basically, I was able to search pictures (Which have keywords attached to them) last week. This morning, as I walk into my office, I couldn't search anything anymore.

"No results" was the only thing I could see on the screen.

Now, I tried searching many things like file names, key words, folder names. Nothing appears.

The only thing I was able to do is no manually navigate into my "Photos" folder and opening the folders one by one made them appear in Bridge.

Now, I must tell you that there's probably around 400 folders dispatched in my "Photos" folder. So you can see it would be crazy to open them one by one, I would be loosing so much time!

I tried to erase the cache and reset préférences, it was not working.

Is there a function in Bridge that could say "See that folder? Index it for me please. Like Now." ?

That would be awesome. I really don't understand how indexing is working in Bridge. Can someone explain it to me?

Thank you very much,

I'll be waiting for your feedback.

Francis

Hi Francis,

I'd begin with resetting Bridge Preferences:-

Hold down  CTRL, ALT, Shift(Windows) /Command,Option, Shift(MAC) while starting Bridge and make check on reset Preferences and Purge cache,Then select Ok.

See Troubleshoot Adobe Bridge for errors and freezes

Let us know if that helps.
