ALFRED OR LAUNCHBAR MAC OS X
The original idea came from Mac OS X Hints. loginitems description: This script is an attempt to speed up login times. I assumed its just a nice script to share. Windows-key search isn't quite there yet. Ive added a script that is not meant to be used with LaunchBar, Alfred or any other launcher.
Here's my best shot at adapting its themes to Alfred. Select Preferences from Alfred's menubar. To configure caps lock to launch Alfred, open Alfred's Preferences panel. In addition to finding files and launching applications, they can perform many complex tasks. IIRC it became tolerable around the time SSDs became standard. While Alfred takes the cake when it comes to functionality, Launchbar certainly has a polished aesthetic. Launching an App Launcher (Like Alfred) Application launchers, such as Alfred and LaunchBar, are like supercharged versions of Spotlight. Butler doesn’t offer the type of custom workflow features that Alfred offers, which means there’s a lot more potential in Alfred for triggering different types of actions. Certainly the fundamental task is not intractable because Spotlight (Apple's search) has been Good Enough for a while. macOS' Spotlight feature has made serious strides in recent years, but many power users still turn to Alfred and LaunchBar for app launching, file searching and executing workflows. Both applications have similar features, so you might only switch up if there’s a few features in Alfred that you think will increase your workflow and productivity. If I were an app developer in this space I would not trust my core functionality to anything even remotely associated with the above, and I strongly suspect that the complexity of handling the long tail of functionality you mentioned has something to do with why the windows-key search experience sucks.
ALFRED OR LAUNCHBAR WINDOWS
I'm not familiar with Windows internals, so I should clarify: I'm talking about the search functionality invoked by typing after pressing the Windows key.
If the backend of Windows Search is amazing, why is the front-end user experience abysmal? The problems just don't seem like front end problems: the search is occasionally slow, it doesn't even reliably find installed programs by their name, and if the result pops up while your next keystroke is underway it will sometimes lose the result even if that keystroke is correct, and somehow finding the result again will require removing more than the single correct keystroke that made your desired result disappear.
