Thanks for the reply, that led me to explore. iCloud was working overall but the Alfred folder seemed to be stuck with the cloud icon and wouldn't download. So you are right I think that's where the trouble may have originated. But then it still wasn't explaining why my recent backups weren't working in a new directory. So I went back even further to a backup from months ago, dropped that in the new directory, and it's golden. Everything is back to normal! So maybe the iCloud problem somehow messed up my preferences file and I just haven't restarted my computer in so long that I never closed out and opened the "new" preferences. Either way it's working so I'm happy, thanks again.

I'm getting this error, even though I haven't changed anything about my setup. I've already tried rebooting, resetting the sync location, restoring preferences from a backup in various locations (the one in the error message, Application Support, etc.). My workflows, snippets, etc. are just gone! "You have a sync location set, but the preferences package is missing from: ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Alfred This could be due to the Volume not yet being mounted, or the preferences being deleted. If you continue, Alfred will use the default preferences location."
