I used to be able to find files on my computer or on iCloud with spotlight, getting worse, possibly not working at all since I updated to Sequoia (without doing homework, sounds like I should have delayed doing so!)
Is there a way to get spotlight to search iCloud for my files?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 15.1

Rebuild the index.
Rebuild the Spotlight index on your Mac - Apple Support
If I let a search sit long enough, it eventually finds things in iCloud Drive that are not in Desktop & Documents.

For items that are not downloaded, you should be able to find file names, but you can’t search by content.

spotlight won't search iCloud anymore?
