No files were found to look in. Find was stopped in progress error when doing find in visual studio

Category ASP.Net Sub Category Visual Studio

'No files were found to look in. Find was stopped in progress' can appear when doing a find in visual studio. This is a bug as the find in question should return results.

Pressing Ctrl + 'Scroll Lock' actually helps stop this happening and allows you to run the find correctly again.

Somehow 'Break' command which is Ctrl + C or Ctrl + Pause got stuck. This though has nothing to do with 'Scroll Lock' so its not all that clear what's going on.
