Alfred 3 corrupt after High Sierra upgrade

[mrjabba]

I upgraded from Sierra to High Sierra over the weekend but didn't check my Alfred until this morning.

I noticed that my clipboard history was empty when it should have had a ton of stuff in it.

So, I checked for the latest updates. When I tried to run the updater, Alfred crashed.

Now if I try to re-launch it, I get this from the Finder "You can’t open the application “Alfred 3” because it may be damaged or incomplete."

 

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Just a reinstall? 

Hoping I didn't lose any data. I've made a backup copy of my Alfred 3 files (from Application Support) just in case.

 

Thanks!

AFAIK, that's the only way to fix that error.

Thanks. Yeah that's what was necessary. I would have liked to keep my clipboard but I know there are security concerns around that.

That disappeared after a re-install? Did you also deep-six all of Alfred's data?
