I checked on EDGE (version 20.10240.16384.0) with current nightly (​http://nightly.ckeditor.com/16-03-24-07-07/full/samples/) and latest stable (​http://ckeditor.com/demo#full) versions and I am not able to reproduce this issue. I followed the steps exactly as you described.

Maybe the editor config or additional plugins influences Find & Replace dialog, if there is something non default maybe you can provide it. It can be also caused by exact sequence of actions - a video showing how to reproduce this issue may be helpful.

The problem with doing tests on nightly build is that it changes often so even if this bug occurred on previous version which you tested it may not occur on the latest build.

@j.swiderski My EDGE version is (25.10586.0.0). I tried again on links you provided I could still reproduce the issue. Pls re-open this ticket. This issue was logged by a customer & they could also reproduce the issue in your build.

@satya Ok, so it seems it's probably newer EDGE version causing this issue. We will try to check it on the same version as yours. Thanks for providing this info.

@j.swiderki / @k.krzton Can you pls check this issue & re-open it. I could still reproduce this issue on nightly. It's a customer reported issue for us.
