disabling search engines in General:Web Search does not disable specified search engines

[just this guy]

Steps to reproduce

go to Alfred Preferences: General: Web Search

uncheck google, lucky, images, maps, translate, gmail, drive ( all for google )

uncheck amazon

close Alfred Preference

activate Alfred 5

type 'asdf'

Alfred 5 offers asdf google search and asdf amazon search as first two options

reboot Macintosh

check Alfred Preferences: General: Web Search

selections are still correct where all above are still unselected

type 'asdf'

Alfred 5 still offers asdf google search and asdf amazon search as first two options

And what do you have set under Preferences > Default Results > Fallbacks (at the bottom of the page)? Take a look at "Setup fallback results".

 

Edit: see also this Alfred help page about fallback searches.
