rgrgeo Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I am just starting on Alfed 2 and created several simple workflows that have disappeared. I replaced 2 of them, just shortcuts to open URL's, and they disappeared within an hour. Can anyone explain why this is occurring? Thanks, Roger Link to comment

It's certainly not a common thing. Let's check a few things.. First off, where are your workflows/preferences currently stored? The default location is ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences. Or, are you using Dropbox or some other application for syncing your settings? Have you tried repairing permissions? There could be a permissions issue preventing the preferences from persisting. Have you tried rebooting? Link to comment
Moses Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 So, I too have lost my workflows from Alfred 2; I am using the default location, ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences and I tried the suggestions here, ... Any other suggestions accepted, Thanks Link to comment
Andrew Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 @Moses if you look inside the Alfred.alfredpreferences package in the workflow folder, are the workflows still there? Cheers, Andrew Link to comment
Moses Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 @Andrew, Thanks for replying, I don't have them in my Workflow folder (on the MacBook) ... I may be looking in the wrong place because I also don't have them in my CCC BackUp, nor my BackBlaze BackUp. Grrr, The BackUps are older than the current mishap; I will continue the search, Best, Link to comment
Moses Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 ... I have them in a GoogleDrive BackUp, ... Link to comment
Moses Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 A straightforward copy worked, Any ideas why I lost them, curiously two survived, i.e., were still to be found in ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences, Thanks, p.s. To preserve the GoogleDrive copy of my Sync Folder, I reset Sync to DropBox ... This jogged my memory: I recently relocated my GoogleDrive to an External Drive, and did not update the Sync -ed locations, ... henceforth I will keep all Sync -ed locations on my Home Drive, Link to comment
