Description Thomas Singer CLA 2022-03-01 05:22:47 EST 
A user reports a hard crash if VoiceOver is used to access menu items in the Help menu. I remember about such crashes in the past which were the reason why we renamed the Help menu to use a Cyrillic letter Н (N) instead, but then the search input field is missing.
