Element Nightly can't securely cache encrypted messages locally while running in a web browser. Use Element Nightly Desktop for encrypted messages to appear in search results.

Fresh install on a fresh windows 10.

I think the primary error is:

2021-02-28T23:19:20.650Z I EventIndex: Error initializing the event index {"message":"Error opening the database: DatabaseError(SqliteFailure(Error { code: NotADatabase, extended_code: 26 }, Some(\"file is not a database\")))"}

This does indeed seem to reproduce on Windows for me as well. 🤔 The database file is created, but then we seem to be unable to open it...?
