Visual studio 2012 highlight find function has stopped functioning

Visual studio normally will find or search for any text that I have highlighted and the pressed ctrl + f, for some odd reason this functionality no longer works.

does anyone know a fix for this issue?

Edit: To clear up below is the current Scenario for my issue.

when I highlight a specific variable and then press Ctrl + F instead of bringing up the find bar with the highlighted variable in it, it brings up the find bar with previously search text

Your default settings might have been changed. Just reset it.

If that does not work;

Go to

Tools --> Options --> Keyboard (Try Resetting it here.)

In Press shortcut keys text box, press Ctrl f and see what Shortcut currenty used by: says?

It should be Edit.Find(Ctrl+F (Global))

Hope that helps.
