Alfred, alternative Linux à PowerToys Run
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Alfred is a solid replacement for PowerToys Run on Linux. It covers the core launcher functions—quick app and file search, fuzzy matching, and calculator features—while adding command‑line execution and unit conversion. The main advantage is its native Linux integration and lightweight footprint. It suits users who rely heavily on keyboard‑driven workflows and want a single tool for launching, searching, and running scripts. If you need advanced Windows‑specific features like registry tweaks or the full PowerToys suite, Alfred won’t replace those, but for everyday launcher tasks it works well.

Ouvrir vos fichiers PowerToys Run
PowerToys Run stores its settings in JSON files under %APPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\PowerToysRun. Alfred does not read these files; you would need to manually recreate any custom commands or hotkeys within Alfred’s own configuration. There is no automated export/import between the two.
