Find Results not displaying Results
Check registry fixes in this thread. That helped me.
To make sure it won't disappear I'm copying the solution from Martin Rosselle here:
Please check if the following registry key is ok. Fixing this solved the issue for me.
- Copy the text below and save it as .reg file.
- Go to regedit.exe and import saved .reg file or simply open the file with Registry Editor and click yes when prompted to continue.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{73B7DC00-F498-4ABD-AB79-D07AFD52F395}]
@="PSFactoryBuffer"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{73B7DC00-F498-4ABD-AB79-D07AFD52F395}\InProcServer32]

I was able to solve this by running:
Devenv.exe /ResetSettings
from the visual studio command prompt, then running a repair on my visual studio installation.
Still a lengthy fix for such a simple problem, but not quite a reformat.
This is a known bug in VS that has been around since 2005. Click on the 'find results' box and click ctrl+break a few times.
If that doesn't work for you, there are a few other key combinations that should - take a look here:
