Search files with Alfred

[AlexeyL]

I can't find some of my files in Alfred, like the ones in Dropbox, but Finder does it just fine. What am I doing wrong? It will be interesting to understand how I can use wildcards, this is something I often need to do

@AlexeyL If you're unable to find files in Alfred, your best bet is to first take a look at the Indexing Troubleshooting tool:

https://www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/indexing/

 

You can drag in a few files and find out whether they're correctly indexed - If they're not, Alfred will guide you on how to resolve the issue.

 

If you can't work it out, please share the output from the troubleshooter for at least a couple of files so that we can help you further

 

Cheers,
