What happened to explorer search? Unable to paste the copied
file name to search for as it was in previous versions. I have to
manually type the file name and press Enter. This is terrible! Why does Microsoft only make things worse with each new version ?!

Because of this problem, I must return to version 1903. For my work, searching in Explorer is a very necessary function. But Microsoft ruined everything as always!
