If Lucifer is not working, it is likely because the app does not have the correct permissions. Open System Preferences and navigate to "Security & Privacy" > "Privacy" > "Automation" and ensure you have allowed Lucifer access to "System Events" by checking the box.

If this does not work, try deleting and re-installing the app.
