Since the latest Catalina upgrade, Notes searching doesn't work anymore. Any solutions?

This just started happening after the latest upgrade. Searching in Notes doesn't work anymore.


Yesterday I tried something suggested in another discussion:


  • Got rid of some relevant files in Library to refresh them.
  • Turned off and on Notes in iCloud settings. After turning it on all my notes needed to sync again. That wasn't enough to fix search so I...
  • ...restarted my MBP.


At that point search in Notes was working again and I thought, "yay!" But this morning it's not working again.


Anybody have any reliable solutions?


Thanks,

Search in Notes is working again after upgrading to 10.15.1. But it also worked last time after I restarted the Mac. So I'll see how it is over the next few days.
