SQL Search 3.5.3 is not working in SSMS 18.6. I've used SQL search for 10 years now and never had this issue. The search window opens, I can type and select dropdowns but no results ever return. I guess I'll uninstall and just query the sys tables. I shouldn't have to install other software to get this working.
Well I am now on SQL Search 3.5.4.2657 and SSMS 18.6. This morning again SQL: Search stopped working. I tried the close SQL Search, disconnect, close SMSS, reopen. Still not working, repeated several times, even with a reboot (twice). I am now just using queries again to find out where items are referenced.
If you guys get this thing stable again please post and I will reinstall it. In the mean time it is a source of frustration which I really don't need in my life. I can go "old school"
