All you searched was "User", ignoring case. You didn't search the type of user, so it correctly returned lines with "user" in it like "private var username"

If what you're saying is true, that's an even more WTF because I'm searching for User references, and not the text "[Uu]ser".

It’s plainly obvious in this screenshot that you’re just searching for the text “user”.

Yeah, that's what "ignoring case" means

I'm pretty sure you're not doing what you think you're doing because of the "containing" right after the arrow. To search a symbol you usually select it, right click it, and then click on something.

Funny you say that... because that's what I did.

Weird, what was the something you clicked? It may be something wrong with that button instead of the search function, as there's "containing" after the arrow so it's not really a symbol search.

As suggested by others, I changed the Containing to Matching Word and that helped tremendously.
