PROBLEM SOLVED !
Thank you davidfor !
First I'll confirm that Calibre was hanging
immediately on clicking on 'Search ePub', and before any dialog was displayed on screen (no second monitor being used).
I can also confirm that you are correct that when I now pressed the escape key (something that I've tried unsuccessfully in past to stop problematic search criteria but had not tried for this problem), control did immediately return to Calibre! and (more surprisingly) when I then clicked on Search ePub again, the normal criteria dialog display did appear and all seems ok now!
Since I had saved the pre-edit change to gui.json, I exited Calibre and switched back to that version of gui.json and again found that pressing the escape key immediately resolved the problem. Rebooting Calibre again showed that I no longer had to use the escape key.
So the criteria list itself does not seem to have been the problem.
I was thinking of comparing both gui.json versions (in their entirety) but unfortunately I have now used the escape key using both versions.
I did use the Win 10 Command box to rerun "calibre-debug -g" to compare the results with the log results provided earlier, and FWIW the following were the lines that had appeared previously that no longer appear in the start-up log:

If the above log messages don't offer any clues then it'll remain a mystery whatever I had done that required a reset using the Escape key.
Thanks again for your help. All seems functional now!
