bobstro Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I searched and found another post asking this same question for Alfred 2. Unfortunately, the file layout seems to have changed with Alfred 4. I inadvertently deleted some components of a workflow (hint: If you cut items from a workflow, IMMEDIATELY paste them where desired. Undo does not work.) This isn't catastrophic, but it would save me some time to be able to recover the lost items. Is there an easy way to recover workflows with Alfred 4? Link to comment
vitor Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Welcome @bobstro, You need to go into your backup and find the Workflow’s directory. By default it will be in ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Alfred.alfredpreferences. Then copy over the info.plist file. Link to comment
bobstro Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 Thank you @Vitor. I always forget show package contents. I found the folders and another post saying the .alfredworkflow files are simply renamed .zip files. Compressing INSIDE the folder seemed to do the trick. I edited the workflow name in the plist to avoid overwriting my current updated version. Link to comment
