Hi Deanishe, Apologies if this hasn't changed then something else surely must have changed. I then need to revisit the updates & actions log I keep to find what else has changed, although I'm certain it started after the update. Maybe two updates coming together, as Chrome is often updated in the background. I'm aware of the passing of by Chrome to the running processes, which none of the "fresh" items in the workflow do. Thanks for your feedback I'll continue my hunt; but I guess I can rule out Alfred.

Hi There, On macOS 11.6 build 20G165 (on M1 laptop) with Alfred 4.6 Build 1266 there is a slight change in the running of workflows as it seems. I most note I also have Little Snitch version 5.3.1 installed. Little Snitch is an outbound firewall so to say for MacOS. Before I installed Alfred Build 4.6 and I ran my workflow "runChrome" which has options to run a new empty Chrome profile, ignore all TLS Errors and/or with a proxy for SSH port forward enabled this worked fine with Little Snitch as Little Snitch used the rules defined for Chrome. Now since Alfred 4.6, at least I think that's what triggered it, when I run Chrome via this workflow, Little Snitch is asking to grant outbound network access to Alfred instead of Chrome for the actual Chrome process/Window. My guess is that with Alfred 4.6 the way a script is launched from the workflow is different than the previous Alfred 4.5.1, almost like it's a full child process and doesn't get spawned as a more or less disconnected process. I did check to see if there was an option like this on the workflow, but I don't believe so. As I can't attach the workflow, here is the code, this all there is to the workflow and script. Please advice if something changed in 4.6, happy to debug / test further but would need some guidance how to do this in Alfred, as the log window for the workflow only said: Thanks in advance!

Hi Vitor, If I recall correctly I never installed Homebrew on this laptop. But I'm not sure why I never notices the directory in the "Search Scope" under "Features" => "Default Results" as I looked in a lot of places for a setting. Now that I removed this one it's also gone in the search results. So issue fixed, but I still believe it shouldn't have shown up there if the dir didn't exists / nothing inside could be found. Stijn

Hi all, I think I found a minor bug. Alfred shows a file/directory which doesn't actually exists. I'm running Alfred v2.8.1 (425) on: OS Info : Mac OS X - 10.11.2 - 15C50 HW Info : MacBook8,1 - x86_64 CPU Info : Intel(R) Core(TM) M-5Y71 CPU @ 1.20GHz Power : On - Charge 100% - State: charged - Left: 0:00 remaining present: true Memory : Total: 8192 MB Used: 7926 MB Free: 266 MB Load Avg : 1m: 1.32 5m: 1.83 15m: 1.93 Disk(s) : Path: / Disk: disk1 Size: 233Gi Free: 144Gi Free: 39% When pressing <cmd>-<space> and "Ce" it's suggesting /usr/local/Cellar which doesn't actually exists.
