Sorry you didn't get a response.

 

Which search bar are you referring to? A screenshot might help.

 

What version of PR?

You better talk to Adobe, we're for the most part here, just other users like yourself. Use the chat on your Creative Cloud page or call support and ask for the 'video queue'

It's working as expected for me. I would try:

 

Workspaces - "Reset to Saved Layout"

 

And if that doesn't work, Reset Preferences:

3. Import your problematic project to the new project.

Just adding to this - if you're working in Productions, you can close the Project and rename it in the Productions panel.

I fixed this by creating a new project and then importing the project the search stopped working in.

 

I'm startring to realize that everytime Premiere has a new update, I should stop opening old projects and instead import them into a new project created with lastest version of Premiere.

Peter makes a good point. Also, it saves some possible anguish to delete the cache before using the new update. Or anytime some wonky behavior starts happening. (Hold down Shift as you start PP from it's normal icon, and respond to the dialog.)

Hey there,

 

Inspired by one of the answers below, I simply renamed my project and it worked for me! Since 4.6k people looked for this thread, I supposed I'd share this simple trick.

Same here, cleaned my cache and worked. Recently got to my current company and there were cache files from years ago. Clear your cache and it is likely to work properly.
