Using global search, is there a way to have the searched for word of phrase highlighted in the messages found containing the word or phrase?

When using the global search function, search results are not highlighted in the messages found containing the search parameters. Looking for a single word in a twenty-page file is a disaster. How would one configure global search to highlight the word or phrase when it is found?

I found that starting TB in safe mode, the HIGHLIGHT feature in GLOBAL search works. No doubt an add-on is responsible for this issue.
