Horribly annoying change to Search in Excel

So I use windows 10 and Excel (2019 I believe) and I have not updated or done any changes when out of nowhere (I even had excel opened) the search changed - basically before whenever I did a search and it didn't find anything, it would just show "0 results" or "0 cell(s) found" but now today, for whatever unknown reason, it instead pops up this annoying window that says;

"Microsoft Excel

We couldn't find what you were looking for. Click Options for more ways to search"

combined with this even more annoying ERROR sound effect.

How do I change back to before? I use Excel 25 hours per day, 999 different workbooks, I will run into this all the time and see this hideous, unnecessary box and hear this god-awful sound effect 6 billion times per day now?

- I've tried restarting excel

- Restarting entire PC

- Search from the top, clicking the "find and select" shit instead of normal ctrl+f

- Deleted all the garbage in %appdata%\Microsoft\Excel\

This problem just won't go away.
