Sync failed, export deleted all passwords
Tried to sync with WLAN and it failed, so i decided to export the passwords to be able to import them back into windows. Upon export all passwords were deleted and no .1pif or .csv file was generated, just a .js file.
Now that all my passwords are deleted and I just finished changing 20 to 30 of them, how do I get them back. As now I can't log into to any of the websites that I've changed (you need the old password!!)
1Password Version: 4.6.2.626
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Android/Windows
Sync Type: WLAN

Hey @chris_bryant, thank you for reaching out to us. I'm sorry your passwords were deleted upon exporting.
Could you clarify whether you exported your data using your Windows or Android device?

Hey @chris_bryant, thank you for the confirmation.
Exporting from 1Password for Android should result in a
1Password.opvaultfile, not a.jsfile. Could you explain how you exported your data?Also, if you're using 1Password 4 for Windows, then there should be automatic backups. If you go to Backup > Restore vault from backup, you should be able to get the latest backup back.

The app did create a 1Password.opvault, but it was empty. On Android I went through the following steps
1. Enter valut password
2. Click settings
3. Goto Advanced
4. Click Export Primary VaultThe App never said anything until it was done and gave me a path on my Android device. Went to that location and all i found was the .js file.
/MyFiles/1PasswordExports/1Password 2021-07-13-16_10_49/1Password.opvault/default/profile.jsI copied that directory over to windows, And when i tried to open the .opvault on the windows platform it came up with no passwords, credit cards, notes etc.
