Why is Spotlight returning no results when searching a single folder?
After upgrading to Ventura, Spotlight was not returning any results when I initiated the search of a specific folder from within the finder. The technical support person I talked with could offer no suggestions.
Turns out he should have told me to rebuild the index:
Rebuild the Spotlight index on your Mac - Apple Support
This fixed it. There's a whole thread on this from February 2023:
A Spotlight Search, made within an open F… - Apple Community
Why on earth is this information still not available to tech support?
(I wanted to reply to that thread, but it said "Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question." This is it.)
