Moved preferences out of iCloud and they're still not updating

[Travis Schmeisser]

Hello! I noticed my prefs weren't syncing and checked the forum. I was reminded that iCloud isn't recommended. Given that iCloud showed a 2019 file, I backed up everything, deleted the prefs and reset the folder to Library/Application Support/Alfred. The new prefs file still appeared still says 2019 though. My settings and workflows are still all intact, it's just the pref file date is still not showing that it's updated. If I view package contents, I can see a few say 2023, but I've added several things to workflows today as well that aren't appearing. Thanks for the help!

@Travis Schmeisser Are preferences saving ok? It's normal for the Alfred.alfredpreferences package (folder) to not update when the contents are updated.

@Andrew If I view package contents, I can see a few say 2023, but I've added several things to workflows today as well that aren't appearing as updated inside.

@Travis Schmeisser could you type ?diagnostics into Alfred and email the exported file to our info@ address?

 

When you say preferences are not updating, what do you mean? They aren't updating inside the preferences package, or Alfred isn't functioning properly?
