What's that advanced search in Adobe Acrobat Reader you're speaking about?

You can't save the results of the Advanced Search in Reader. Are you really using Acrobat? If so, what version, and on what OS?

Strange. What's your exact version number of Acrobat? You can find it out by going to Help - About Adobe Acrobat.
I would recommend making sure you have all the updates installed and then trying to do a Repair Installation (also from the Help menu), if the issue is not solved.

Continuous Release I Version 2020.013.20064.
so there is a lot of files that is searching from, for you to have an idea it takes about 2 hrs before it finishes the search, but then the advanced search closes by its self right after it finishes, does the amount of files in the folder that its searching have anything to do with that? just me thinking

My guess is the application is crashing, probably due to an Out of Memory error.

I would recommend using a stand-alone (preferably command-line) tool.
The output can be a simple text file, or it can even move the matching files to a specific folder.
This will require some custom-made development, though. If you're interested in hiring someone to create such a tool for you feel free to contact me privately via [try6767 at gmail.com] to discuss it further.
