Does "compatibility mode" still exist in v3?


Recommended Posts

I installed Alfred 3 (first time I've used Alfred) along with the powerpack over the weekend. Got to work yesterday and one of my core apps for my business (a proprietary app our corporate office developed that runs in java) was virtually useless. Couldn't figure out what happened, then thought maybe it's Alfred. I quit Alfred, it runs fine.

 

I told the dev about it and he found something online about when Alfred runs in standard mode it can conflict with java apps, so the answer is to select compatibility mode. I can't find that setting in V3. Is that still an option? I hope so, otherwise I just wasted the purchase on the powerpack as I can't use Alfred in standard mode and do business otherwise.

Hi there, launch Alfred to the Appearance preferences and click the "Options" button in the bottom left; You'll be able to select the Compatibility mode from the Focusing dropdown menu there :)
