Finder keeps freezing at search

I have MacBook Pro 2017 with Mojave 10.14.3. Since installing Mojave, if I try to do search using the finder search box, after typing the first letter the finder freezes in a way that I have to kill the process or restart the computer to can be "unfreeze". Any suggestions?

Hello terious,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand Finder stops responding when using the search box. I can help with this. I suggest starting by booting in safe mode.

You can also try with a test user.

These will help you isolate the issue a bit more.



Take care.
