thebitguru Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 * What you were doing when the issue happened Copying a file path. Select a file (not folder) in finder, press Cmd+option+\, and choose Copy Path to Clipboard. The copied path will contain a slash after the end of the filename (which signifies a directory). e.g. '/Users/thebitguru/Downloads/Alfred/Alfred_2.1_218.zip/' * Whether you were able to replicate it a second time by performing the same action Yes, appends the slash in all cases. * Include any screenshots that might help us Not necessary. * Include the Alfred version & build number you are using v2.1 (218) * Include your OS X version 10.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have something in particular installed which could be affecting OS X's flle system APIs? I'm going to move this to the help forum to see if others can reproduce it or shed some light on the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebitguru Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 The only one that I can think of is Path Finder, but I doubt that's the cause. It's interesting that the main Alfred window shows the correct path (i.e. without slash), but I get the slash when I use the copy the function. See the screenshot below.

I have had another play with this and I think I've got it... it looks like 'Escape copied path' is to blame in Alfred's Features > File Search > Advanced prefs. I'm going to move this back to bugs and get it fixed for 2.1.1, but for now, untick this option and things should work better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Great, that will work for me. Thanks for tracking this down. This should be fixed if you download the 2.1.1 pre-release from Alfred's Update prefs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
