Re: Searching for keyword only brings up files that contain the word in the name

Searching for keyword only brings up files that contain the word in the name

Hi, I am a longtime Business Dropbox user and everything worked fine until we upgraded to Win11 on our computer. When I search for a  file(s) containing a certain keyword it now only shows some of the documents that have that search item in the file name or as locked PDF files and not it's PPTX documents. Before it would show all files containing that keyword in the document texts.
Can anyone assist with this issue, please?
