My Alfred search mysteriously works normally again after renaming the troublesome top level folder.  I am guessing it is some permissions type of problem but can't say for certain.

I am running a freshly downloaded vanilla Alfred 4.3 with Big Sur version 11.1 on an iMac.  After upgrading to Big Sur (clean install), Alfred was not able to find folders/files in a folder named, "Calibre Library" which was located in the top level home folder and contains many thousands of files (epub, pdf, & jpg).  Spotlight is able to find all folders/files in the Calibre Library folder.  Alfred finds all other folders/files except for those in the Calibre Library folder.  I re-indexed Spotlight using Alfred Rebuild macOS Metadata with no change in results.  I moved the Calibre Library folder into the Documents folder thinking there may be an issue searching in the top level home folder; still Alfred did not find any folders/files in the Calibre Library folder (and re-indexed Spotlight).  I added the Calibre Library folder to the Search Scope in Alfred; still no results.  I ran Alfred File Search Troubleshooting routine and all tests passed; I tried several different folders/files in the Calibre Library folder as well as the Calibre Library folder itself -- all passed.

After creating a new Calibre Library folder and moving all the folders/files into the new folder (deleting the old empty folder), Alfred was able to find all folders/files in the new Calibre Library folder -- success!  However, after shutting down the iMac and restarting, Alfred is no longer able to find any folders/files in the Calibre Folder even after re-indexing again.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?  Could there be a permissions issue that I cannot see with the Calibre Library folder/files?

I forgot to add that access was granted to Alfred in System Settings (Accessibility, Full Disk Access, & Files and Folders).

Is there a way to make the "move" command work with files selected in Path Finder instead of Finder?

I have added NSFileViewer of type String with the value com.cocoatech.PathFinder to both plist files.  Now a "find" command does not Reveal in Finder or Path Finder but just does nothing.  I deleted and rebuilt the Finder plist file which didn't help.  I also uncheck and recheck Path Finder's "Use as default browser" (with Alfred 2 closed) which also didn't help.  Any other suggestions to get Alfred 2 working with Path Finder 6.1.5?
