My file browser isn't working

<mark>READ FIRST BEFORE POSTING</mark>

I know it isn’t working in general but I have heard people being able to search for people’s file shares. Mine isn’t working. I do:

Map variants->custom search->type in GT

I’ve heard of this bug affecting a few people. Here’s the fix that I’ve seen being spread around:

Send a Friend Request or Private Chat Invite to the person before searching for their gamertag. You don’t need them to actually accept it. Get what you need, then cancel the request/invite.

EDIT: Whoops, wrong problem! You don’t do a Custom Search by author; those are broken. Do a File Share Search.

file browsing in general is not working at all. dont worry your not the only one.
also why is it taking them this long to fix it?

The sheer amount of coding other other, more important priorities. Thanks David for the info, I will try that as soon as possible.
