Restore deleted Alfred 2 workflow from Time Machine backup

[buffagiorgio]

Hi all,

I accidentally deleted a workflow I was working on. Is it possible to restore it from Time Machine? Which file / In which folder should I look for?

 

Thank you,

Giorgio

If you don't have syncing setup, it's in your home folder:

 

~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences/Workflows/

 

You can get to this folder quickly by selecting a workflow in Alfred's preferences, right click and select "Show in Finder", then go up one folder

Hi Andrew,

thank you! It worked as you perfectly explained.

Hi, same thing here, except that I don't have Time Machine enabled, and I use Dropbox syncing ;(

I don't see my workflow in the trashcan, nor in my dropbox... Anything else I can do?

 

EDIT : Ok, found it myself : Fortunately, Dropbox has a feature to restore deleted folders and files. It's accessible in the web interface.

Hi, I've just checked the same on Box website, where it seems there is a similar function of Trash, where deleted files are stored for a month.
