Alfred:ignore for applications

[sballin]

Hi,

 

I upgraded to Alfred 2 and I'm loving it so far. But there a lot of applications that I don't want to have cluttering my results (a lot of Adobe uninstall helpers). These are in the same directory as applications that I use frequently, so I reckoned putting "Alfred:ignore" or "alfred:ignore" in the Spotlight comments from the Get Info window would do the trick. But this doesn't change the results at all, even if I restart Alfred. If I restart Finder these comments are cleared from the Get Info window.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Try typing 'reload' into Alfred to clear his caches

That worked for a few of them. I still couldn't do that with a few like Adobe AIR Uninstaller, but in the end I dropped them into Spotlight's Privacy list and that worked. Thanks for your help!
