It seems I have to do it monthly 
(https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201716) since it is not finding all 
matched Office documents in Documents folder. This never happened in 
older versions like Mojave v10.14. :(

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

Never.   I have never used search ever, on Mac or on Windows.  In over 
30 years of using computers - at home and at work -  I have never needed 
to search for anything.

you must not have very many files, or you don't do very much with your
computer.

Insecurity?

I don't suffer idiots gladly.

I'm not sorry about that.

The simple fact is that his post was completely unhelpful.

Your continual top-posting is one of the marks of the more idiotic trolls. 
Your inability to make interesting posts is another. Keep it up and you’ll

not when the word is appropriate and accurately describes someone, such
as when a person intentionally, deliberately and blatantly violates
usenet posting etiquette by top posting, especially after repeatedly
being told to not do that in numerous threads. 

  A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

  A: Top-posting.

And yet, it is also an accurate description of someone who claims to
have "never used search ever" or the other option, your use of a
computer is trivial.

I know someone who has never used search on her computer either. She is
an accountant. She runs two programs on her computer, and only two.
Google Chrome and her accounting software (whatever Peachtree became
when it was Borged). She has no need of search because the only data on
her computer is the accounting files. (Literally the only data, no
music, photos, videos, documents, nothing).

Your insistence on top-posting lends credence to the 'idiot'
possibility.
