@Vero Yes... Still missing metadata I even tried to uninstall Chrome, re-install a brand new version and relaunch the indexing process. But stiill, metadata are missing, unfortunately.

@Vero I have checked the Terminal checkbox, rebuilt the index again, reloaded Alfred after reindexing was complete. But... Still not working 😅 What i find strange is that certain Apple apps (like Photobooth.app and Photos.app) are found, but not all of them (Mail.app for instance is not found), and none that I installed myself (like Chrome, Photoshop, and so on). While Spotlight finds them, on the other hand...

Thanks for the feed back... I did remove alfred permissions and re-added it. But impossible to give permissions into the Automation panel (picture3) I rebuilt the index and waited for its achievement... Terminal did not make any error *************************************************** * * * This script will reindex your metadata by * * running the command 'sudo mdutil -E -i on /' * * * * Indexing can take up to an hour * * and Alfred won't work during this time. * * * * You can see the progress of the reindexing * * by performing a search in Spotlight. * * * *************************************************** Close this window to cancel, or press any key to continue... Password: /: Indexing enabled. You can see the progress of the reindexing by performing a search in Spotlight Press any key to finish... [Opération terminée] *************************************************** But Alfred is still not working and is unable to find my applications...

Hello everybody, Is there any fix for this Catalina indexing problem? Same issue on my computer... Catalina version 10.15.6 Alfred version 4.1 [1167] I have tried all troubleshooting fix... Reset the search scope to default Checked the correct Spotlight Search Results Rebuilt my Mac's index Verified that indexing is enabled Reloaded the application cache after Re-Indexing is complete Verified that Spotlight finds the applications (and it does) But indexing is still not working...
