Find usage of id not working in Android Studio on Windows

I selected an id in XML, mouse right click, find Usage shows no occurrence of id even Id exist in java file. And if i do the same in Mac its finding it.

So is there any cache issue or something else ?

For those who may have problems with "Auto-Complete" and "Find" functionality in IntelliJ-based IDEs:

Did you check whether the project's directories with source codes are excluded from indexing? If they are excluded, the IntelliJ-based IDEs do not index those directories' contents. As you know, you can check this by right click on your desired directories, then -> Mark Directory as -> Not Excluded.

I hope it will be helpful.

Another reason why that shortcut is not working is that, probably you GEFORCE EXPERIENCE is using that shortcut, which happened to my system: Remove that shortcut in your GEFORCE EXPERIENCE

enter image description here

I learned that from the following link:

In my case I was not finding anything since I had "File name Filter" checked and I was just looking in build.gradle.

enter image description here

There are two options to resolve the problem: 

1. Uncheck option "File name Filter" or,
2. Just filter to *.java or whatever type of file you want

I was having the same problem and unfortunately @josedlujan's answer does not solve the problem.

Alternatively, you my try the Ctrl+Shift+F to certainly find what you want, also double clicking Shift will open a quick dialog to find certain keyword in the whole project.
