Have you installed python? I found it was required to make search function.

Hi Tyson. I've got Python 3.12.7 installed. I'll try to install the latest dev build and report back this weekend.

I have maybe the same problem and this version didn't change the status (if this is different I can log a new bug). I don't even get a search tab. Weird thing is apart from the first time I ran qb after upgrading to Tahoe where a brief message complaining about Python popped up, there have been no messages since then and the execution log is silent on the topic.
