Q: Spotlight 2 letter limit

Spotlight only seems to work with 2 letters for me. (mostly, but with some exceptions it will work with 3)

 

If I type one letter, it works although the list seems rather limited

If I type two letters, it works although the list seems rather limited

If I type three or more letters it just stays where it was after I typed the second.

If I type 3 letters quickly before it has time to complete a search after entering just one or two letters, it does nothing at all

 

Search in the Finder works just fine.
