Copy and Paste Files Workflow

[alfredclough]

This workflow adds a file action called "Paste." It will copy the selected file to the clipboard and then paste it in the front application. It basically automates the copy and paste process where you need to copy and paste files. It will handle multiple files, so if you have multiple files selected, it will paste each of them into the current application.

 

It also adds a number of other files actions including Duplicate, Move to Trash, New Folder, and Open in New Finder Tab.

Interesting workflow but I got a "No user interaction allowed" in Mountain Lion.

You should be prompted to change that setting in System Preferences. If you are not, you simply go to System Preferences. Then choose "Security & Privacy." Choose the "Privacy" tab. The select "Accessibility" and allow Alfred 2 to control your computer.
