My extension vanished from Chrome, and when I try to reinstall it through clicking the downloaded 1Password.crx file Chrome gives me a message that says "Apps, extensions, and user scripts cannot be added from this website."

It then links to this website saying they have a change in policy.

This has worked perfectly well until this morning when I loaded Chrome and it had vanished.

    Are you still having trouble after following the steps to drag and drop the file from Finder (not from the download bar) as outlined in the thread pinned to the top of this category?

    There is a video in that thread as well if it helps.

    Please let me know.

    I'm not on a Mac. I'm using Windows 7.

    Sorry for any confusion. You posted in the Browser Extensions for Mac category. I've moved this to the Windows forum now to avoid any further confusion.

    The procedure is essentially identical except you drag the CRX file from Windows Explorer instead of Finder. The instructions are listed (with screenshots) on the extension download page that opens in Chrome when you click "Install Chrome Extension" on the Browsers tab in 1Password's preferences.

    Please let me know the number of the step you are stuck on if you're still having trouble. Please describe in as much detail as possible the steps you are taking, and what you are [not] seeing happen? With some additional information from you we can then provide you with specific assistance.
