Hi keepitsimpleengineer, thanks for your report. This seems a strange one and and I agree it's a serious problem not being able to access Software Center's search capability. Unfortunately, I can't seem to reproduce this myself. However, if you could provide some additional info, it should help us to debug this issue.

First, before you do anything else, could you please attach the following file to this report?

  ~/.config/software-center/softwarecenter.cfg

After that, could you please launch software-center from the command line and attach any output that you get to this bug?

  $ software-center

Finally, in the screenshot your Software Center window seems unusually narrow. Could you please maximize the window (or just make it wider), and let me know if the search bar appears? If it does not, please quit Software Center while it is maximized and restart. Does the search bar appear now?

Thanks very much for your help, it's much appreciated!
Gary
