VBA Combo Box autocomplete issue

I have a script for my a combobox that is in a userform (GUI). The combo box uses a formula called "DropDownList" that I made to enable a particular type of autocomplete feature to my combo box.

My program works as follows: After I start typing in the combo box and it narrows down my search, I click on the option I want and then press a command button "search" to find and open a file in a folder. When I go to the combo box again to type in a new selection, this is when my program bugs out. I also am not able to close out of the excel file that opens after I "search". I have to manually do it by force closing. I think this has something to do with it.

I've attached pictures and part of my code. Any help would be much appreciated as I just cannot figure it out.

Code:
Dim DisableCb As Boolean


Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()


    Dim Wbk As Workbook
    Dim Pth As String
   
    Pth = Environ("Userprofile") & "\Desktop\My Files\"


    DisableCb = True


    On Error Resume Next


    Set Wbk = Workbooks.Open(Pth & Me.ComboBox1.Value)
   
    On Error GoTo 0
   
    If Wbk Is Nothing Then
        MsgBox "Workbook not found."
    End If
    
    ComboBox1.Value = ""
    
    If ComboBox1.Value = "" Then
        Dim myRange As Range
        Set myRange = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Range("E2")
        myRange.Clear
    End If
    
    DisableCb = False


End Sub


Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()


    If DisableCb Then Exit Sub
    
    ComboBox1.RowSource = "DropDownList"
    Me.ComboBox1.DropDown
    
    Sheets("Data").Range("E2") = Me.ComboBox1.Value
    
End Sub
