@Vero Hi thanks for the prompt reply!

One of the apps missing from search is Microsoft Word. I navigated into the Applications folder and dropped it into the troubleshooter as you mentioned. Here are the results:

✅ Troubleshooting passed
 

Looks fine to me, would you mind take a look as well? Thanks!

Hi all,

I have been using Alfred 4.1 Build 1167. Since I updated to macOS Big Sur Public Beta (20A5343j), some previous-installed apps are not appearing in search results.

These apps CAN be opened from launchpad, or searched with spotlight. I also tried clearing application cache, rebuilding macOS Metadata, gave it some time and "reload". Still nothing unfortunately.

However, if I individually re-install these apps (replacing from the Applications folder works as well), they then appear in the search results.

Any ideas? Thanks a lot!
