Alfred not searching Spotlight comments

[GatorMapi]

I add comments to a an app in the info section but Alfred doesn't find them. Am I doing something wrong?

@GatorMapi Which version of macOS are you using, what's your tag/comment and what are you typing into Alfred?

 

There's a difference between comments and tags;

• Tags are at the top of the Get Info pane for a file, and can be searched using the "tags" keyword in Alfred
• Comments are set further down in the Get Info pane, and are included when using the "find" keyword

In both cases, they rely on the macOS Metadata, and worked as expected for me as I re-rested them on both Big Sur and Monterey. 

 

If you can provide more details, I'll be happy to help you further

 

Cheers,
Vero

I create comments to call up files and folders. Comments seem to work fine to call up files but when I use the 'fo2' or 'fo1' comment to call an app it isn't appearing in the Alfred search bar.
