Alfred web search does not work

[Naam]

I tried to use any of the keywords in the web search section. However Alfred does not search the web at all. It only searches for files on the hard drive.

The help files on the Alfred website are far from complete and after reading your website no solution is described.

Hi Naam,

 

Alfred will first present you with results from your Mac, as these tend to be the most relevant. When no local results are found, Alfred will offer to search Google, Amazon and Wikipedia for the search term you typed.

 

If you want to search a specific website, take a look at Alfred's preferences under Features > Web Search for a wealth of web searches and the ability to create your own custom searches.

 

Take a look at this "First 5 minutes with Alfred" guide to get you started:
