The search function in the top left doesn't return any results. It used to return results if the given search term appeared in either a file name or the body of a file.

    If you are using PDFs and the invoice is only 1 page try loading a test file as a photograph file, I.e. jpeg etc and see it it reads the invoice amount. Else think about putting the amount in the file name itself. That might be tricky but experiment with various formats that only has this amount as the numeric value.

    If you google "search everything" you will get to it.

    https://everything.en.softonic.com/

    It is a free superfast tool to search files on your hard drives.

    If you try to do the same with fil explorer it will take a very long time.
