Bad news! Something is wrong with my machine. I was using it today and it immediately logged me off with no warning. The video I was watching in VLC was still playing, until I logged back in, at which point, everything restarted again.
It seems every time I quit and restart Alfred, my settings are reset to default, apart from my license and a few other things. The preferences-setter for Alfred, which is a separate application, resets my preferences every time I restart that application too, but even though it displays incorrect settings, the actual Alfred instance still remembers my settings, until I restart it itself. - حبيب الامين - On 21 May 2015, at 20:25, حبيب محمد ألأمين محمد ألهـاد <[email protected]> wrote: > More details. > > Many apps are asking for my permission to allow network access again (I have > the OS X firewall turned on). > > I had to set all my Alfred settings again, but my packages were still there > and so was my license.
