Shall do.

Thanks, Vero. I'm now on v2.5. The official Alfred version doesn't work for me, nor does my own. As a workaround, I've written a search query that queries the old Google Drive interface, and that works fine.

I'd be happy to screenshare if you think it would be useful. Or maybe I'm the only one who's having this problem.

Thanks, Andrew. How do I do that?

Incidentally, the custom search that I created has stopped working, and I can't work out why.

Great. I don't know why I hadn't considered doing that already. Thanks, Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for looking into it.

You'll know if you have the new Google Drive, because its left-hand menu will look like this: http://screencast.com/t/nC3nc7eCd

When I searched for company folder from Alfred, the URL was

https://drive.google.com/#search/company%20folder

…which redirected to…

https://drive.google.com/a/conversion-rate-experts.com/#search/company%20folder

…which redirected to…

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/#search/company%20folder

…which redirected to…

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/#search?q=company%2520folder

A few days ago, Google launched its new interface for Google Drive. Since then, I can no longer use Alfred to search Google Drive, because when I search for, say, "company folder" it inserts the text "company%20folder" into Google Drive's search box. (In other words, it inserts the text as HTML entities.)

Any idea how I can fix it?

I'm using v2.3(264) on up-to-date OSX Mavericks.
