I just downloaded this, using latest version of alfred and it doesn't seem to work. Latest version of Sierra 10.12.5

Alfred added to the accessibility settings, any way I could debug this?

Oooo I'm sorry about it.

Please follow this instruction that I created especially for you and let me know what is a console output please. I'm more than happy to help to gte it running on your machine and enjoy using Div.

This is the error i get in the console:

[2017-06-22 23:55:39][ERROR: action.script] 60:66: execution error: Finder got an error: Can’t get bounds of window of desktop. (-1728)

I figured out the issue based on the feedback from the console. I had set this default awhile ago to hide everything on my desktop.

defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop false

So I just did the opisite to show them again:

defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop true and then killall Finder to restart the finder and now div works.

O wow! I totally have no clue why CreateDesktop conflicts with appleScript events but I'm glad it is all sorted. It is really good to know. Thanks a lot!
