Alfred is "finding" a lot less than Spotlight.

 

That is absolutely by design. Alfred is based around the idea of multiple, tightly-focussed searches. You're only supposed to include your most regularly-accessed stuff in its main search, and then create separate searches with File Filters for other kinds of stuff (e.g. a search just for images or a search for PDFs in ~/Documents).

 

You can cram everything into Alfred’s default search (and don’t forget the in keyword to search the contents of files, not just their names), but you won't be getting the best out of it if you do.
