    @Dhamley To narrow down this issue, please verify the followings:

    1. What did you mean by "Search not working for specific users"? Is there an error displayed when they search? Or were no results returned?
    2. Do more than one user has this issue? Or does just one specific user has this issue?
    3. What permissions do the problematic users have? Search has security trimming, if the users have no access to the content that they want to search, no results will be returned when they search.

    So, please compare your permission with the problematic users', make sure the problematic users have the same permission as you, or they have at least Read permission on the content that they want to search.
