After upgrading to version 45.0, the search feature of the address book does not work the same. The left pane shows a hierarchy of address books: All Address Books -> Personal Address Book and several mailing lists under that.

Searches of All Address Books will work, but no search will work if I've selected anything under that. I just get a blank contacts list as soon as I enter anything in the search field which is set to "Name or email"

We had the same problem at earlier update. It's MoreFunctionForAddresssBook thats the problem. Disable it and the search works
