Why Spotlight, why?

[GreyOS]

Also "calc" used to open Canary (Chrome) until I uninstalled it. Why? How can I fix this?

You post seems ambiguous to me. What are the (details) of the problem with Spotlight you are having? What are you expecting to show when you type Spot?

 

[PhiLLoW]

why don't you type spotl and then press Enter?

I'd be looking for a way to force spotlight to reindex your drive, I dont recall having any wierdness like that.

For those that cant see it, OP is asking why entering "spot" returns a Top Hit of Safari, and not Spotify....

Had the exact same problem with Spotify, AppCleaner (opens Activity Monitor), etc. Don't remember how I got rid of it though. I probably just reindexed spotlight with Onyx.

Thank you for clarifying and sorry to others, it was bad communication on my part. Yes, I find spotlight often makes very strange choices for top hit (I use Spotify a lot more than Safari, too!)

I will look into reindexing my drive, thank you.
