I uninstalled the release version I had been using, then did a complete
shutdown and cold boot. I then installed (I believe) what you asked.  Here is
the info from "About":

Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64)
Build ID: 4342aaef0c4d6cd5c51fd2b74328bb4df5fb71dd
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; VCL: win; 
TinderBox: Win-x86_64 at 42, Branch:master, Time: 2019-09-20_06:31:38
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: CL

I used the original file where the defect was noted, as well as a much smaller
file as test files.  The newer version I installed does act different in that
when a search string is not found, the text string typed into the search box
changes to a red font. This is new, so it confirms I am running the new
install.

It still fails for me.  Here is detail.
Test string typed into a cell is:   What Doesn't Kill Her
Search for this fails. I get same "Search Key not found" return.
I also tried text "Don't Kill Her" just for fun. Same defect.
If I search for text string stopping before the apostrophe shown in the cell,
it always finds the cell.
Example:  Search for text Doesn will find the cell with "What Doesn't Kil Her".
As noted by another comment, after I type the string into a cell, if I copy
that string, and paste THAT into the search box, the search completes
successfully.

I was very careful in my test procedure, so I believe I am not introducing any
operator error.
