Help browser finds all possible articles except those for internal MATLAB functions. However, search in the command window returns the correct result.
For example, if I search for function find, I get documentation from Stateflow®. However, if I type help find, I get the content of this page to the command window.
Can this be fixed? I use MATLAB R2015b.

Can you attach a picture of the Help Browser results when you search for "find"?

If I search in the Help Browser, I get this list:
Alternatively, if I just press F1 on the function name, I get directly the first article from this list:
So, no result for the internal MATLAB function. Though, I get one if I type help find

Go to the Preferences (in the Environment section on the Home tab.) In the Help section of the preferences for MATLAB ensure that MATLAB is selected. If it is not, select it and apply the change. Next close the Help Browser, reopen it, and repeat your search. I suspect that will resolve the problem.

Thank you for the help, Steven. I opened the MATLAB Help Preferences window and found that there is no MATLAB in the list of available options. So you are probably right about the reason for this behaviour.
I had to reinstall MATLAB (I actually upgraded to R2016b), which brought me this option in the preferences and Help Browser works as expected now.
