Philip Dhingra Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I've installed, deleted, and re-installed Alfred, and still Alfred's search turns up nothing when I put in anything. Here's an example: This may be related to other Spotlight issues that I'm having, that I posted on Ask Different. However, my Spotlight does return results for "Media Ideas": Link to comment

Vero Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 @Philip Dhingra Welcome to the forum Looks like you're searching for files without using the "open" prefix, so unless you've changed the file types you want to see in your default results, you shouldn't be seeing text files in there. Take a look at our beginner's guide to searching with Alfred here: https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/tips-and-tricks/beginners-guide-to-alfred-searching-your-mac-and-the-web/ This will show you how to use the "open" and "find" keywords, as well as the spacebar trick (a shortcut to the "open" keyword). Let us know how you get on. Cheers, Vero Link to comment
Philip Dhingra Posted January 23, 2020 Author Share Posted January 23, 2020 Ah, I think the "open" thing solves it! 🤦♂️ Thanks! Link to comment
