"Activate" Action Not Working to Open Stream Deck Config

I'm doing a lot of work Setting up Stream Deck system, which has me opening the Stream Deck configuration app frequently, so I want to make a hot key to do that, instead of mousing up to the stream deck Icon.

If you double-click Elgato Stream Deck app in the finder, it launches. If you invoke Alfred and type "stream", it launches when you hit return.

However, a simple Keyboard Maestro macro with just an action to activate Elgato Stream Deck does nothing when run. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Works fine for me. Have you double checked your group settings? What happens when you click Run at the top of the macro?

Your questions got me noodling around, and I discovered the activate action needed "Re-Open initial windows" checked. When I load it from the actions menu, it comes in un-checked. I don't really know what that checkbox does, but that made it work for me!

Thanks,
Russell
