You can right-click on the .alfredpreferences file and click Show Package Contents to see what's taking up the space.

Icons, python libraries, etc.  Lots of workflows use additional resources.

Thank you, I see. Alfred is saving all the workflows contents along with the package. But there's a "remote/images/items" folder that stores some high resolution icons holding 10m of space, what's that for?

It contains all your preferences, snippets, themes and workflows.

Shouldn't them all be text files? What's so big?

It's 20mb, what's inside?

Found a solution: add `/Applications` into `System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy`, then run `Clean Application Cache`

You can change Alfred's Fallback Searches easily as a Powerpack user.

 

Take a look at the tutorial here:

Thanks, but setting fallback searches the search still includes apps in `/Applications` and apps in other directories on my computer, I see the `Applications` options is greyed in the settings, is it possible to turn it off?

I disabled every possible search scopes and alfred is still searching through my files, I want to use alfred only as a script runner (or is there any other more light weight alternative alfred-like script runner)
