Spotlight bugged in Tahoe 26.0.1 ?

Spotlight, one of the best integrated dayly use features of Mac Os, not working properly anymore in new Mac Os Tahoe on my Macs (on 2 different Mac Book Pros: 1 M2 Max & 1 M4 Max).


I usually do not switch off and on my system if not requested.

I just close my Mac screen and when needed i reopen it again.

The readyness and stability of Mac is one of the specificts does define it as a Mac.


Now with Mac Os Tahoe Spotlight stops finding files after 1 or 2 days of system on.

I need to reboot and "magically" Spotlight works again!


Are these becoming Windows machines ?!?

I do not understand why this is happening.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Do you have any suggestions?


Bests to the community, Tom.


MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 26.0
