Search by date modified not working - Windows 10

Sorry to say this didn't work for me.

Every end of the year I "archive" all my files which are older than January 1st of the current year.

This worked for decades.

Today I searched all files in my personal directory having a date older that 01/01/2017 by using the following in the search box:

date:<01/01/2017

The search listed only files from some subdirectories but no file from other directories and subdirectories (e.g. no files from my Documents). If I run the search in my Documents directory, the files show up!

Any other suggestions?

Thanks.
