Search function doesnt work on Adobe Reader

Dear Friends,

 

I have very strange problem. It's first time I see something like that.

The problem is, when I press CTRL+F to bring the search bar and write text which I want to find. It shows the results but the view is blank.

I am adding video-screenshot to this post.

 

I have removed (fully) and installed again. But no use.

Please help me.

Are you able to select the text you're searching for on the page? If so, copy it and then paste into another application, like Notepad. Does it appear there as it does in the PDF file?

Thank you for your reply.

Yes I can select and paste it anywhere. I know what you mean, you mean maybe this PDF is actually scanned image not the searchable PDF. What I want works on my other computers. but not on this computer. If you search it finds, somehow something is wrong with windows itself that it doesn't show, makes it visible to you.
