File Explorer search Current folder option doesn't work

Good morning,

I am having a problem with my Windows 10 file explorer searches.  When I search for an item, it brings back results in for the current folder and all subfolders as it should.  When I click on "Current folder" in the search tools, however, it does nothing.  I still see all results from all subfolders.  

I believe this problem started after installing NVIDIA GeForce Experience and the latest NVIDIA driver.  I tried to do a system restore, but it seems I dont have any restore points.  That is another problem I will have to fix.  

Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

    Actually I've had this problem for at least a month.  I only updated to 2004 version 3 days ago in the hopes that the problem would be fixed but nope, still doesn't work.  Great job Microsoft!  You take two steps forward and three steps back.  Oh and my computer is running about 25% slower than it was before I did that latest update, too.  lol
