Finder not working in Monterey 12.1

Hello!


Got a new MBP for Christmas. Upgraded recently to Monterey 12.1. Now, whenever I try to use Finder to run a search for a file, I just get an empty search result even when I know the file exists. Search only works if I run it in Macintosh HD. Any other file and I get nothing. Can anyone please help?


Thanks!
