Virtual copies don't show up as edited

Question

Just upgraded from a very old version of LrC to the newest version. New problem:

When I create a virtual copy, then do some edits, the virtual copy thumbnails display the "edited" symbol at the bottom right like you would expect, but when I filter by "edited" in Library or Develop, the virtual copies do no show up. If I optimise my catalog, then they do appear, but obviously I don't want to do that after every edit, lol.

Any ideas on how to solve this? Super annoying, and a dealbreaker to my workflow. Thanks in advance!

In a first step try is to reset the preferences to the default settings.

Reset Procedure:
Close Lightroom.
Windows: Hold down [Alt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.
Mac: Hold down [Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.
Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog.
Close Lightroom.
Restart Lightroom.

It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:
