solved "Lock" not working for me

[Alan Smith]

If I use "Lock", it simply does nothing.  It can "Sleep"

 

I saw the previous bug report and removed accessibility permissions and added them back.  It got rid of a "beep" but it still doesn't work.  

 

I can "Lock Screen" from the Apple menu

 

I am able to reproduce it.

 

Using Alfred 4.5 [1253]

macOS Big Sur 11.4

 

What other information would be helpful?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Alan

Have you changed that shortcut (default: ⌃⌘Q)? Alfred uses it for the lock procedure.

[Alan Smith]

Yes.   I changed it to "⌘L".   Is there any way I can tell Alfred that I changed it?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Alan

I don't think so, but you can easily create your own workflow that simulates ⌘L to replace Alfred's built-in lock.

I just created my first workflow.  (I am new to powerpack).  Wow, that was easy....
