Remembering categories selected when re-opening 1Password

rwakeford

Having separate categories on the right is bad enough but why can't 1Password remember the last category selected on re-opening instead of ALWAYS going back to "Categories"? Like the majority of users here (having read lots of posts), I predominantly use Logins, so why can't it stay selected, no matter whether 1Password is restarted after an update or a close down?

Hi @rwakeford!

I have just tested this and the app remembered which category I was in before I quit it. What is the exact 1Password version you are running? For reference, I tested this with version 80400010.

80400023 and OS 11.6 on a MacBook Pro. Just tried several times again. It stays in my Personal vault but always goes back to "All Categories" no matter which category I leave it in when closing..

Thanks @rwakeford. I was able to reproduce that on 80400023. I'll file an issue for further investigation. :+1: Appreciate you reporting this.

Still the same in 25 unfortunately. I'm sure it'll be rectified soon though. ;-)

Indeed @rwakeford, the report is still open internally, but hopefully it should be addressed in an update soon ;)

Today I just was wondering about this issue because I remember it was fixed some builds ago.
Till today, I used the latest NIGHTLY-build which had this issue. And so I switched back to the latest BETA-release (80400019) and the issue is still there.
Every time you close / minimize the Windows app and reopen it, the selection moves back to "All Categories".
Please fix it. :)

Ben

Thanks for confirming, @DenalB.

I just found out that after restarting my PC, not only the category switched back to "All Categories". Also, the collection was lost, and I had to switch back to my created collection with my personal vault only in it. Strange...

Thanks @DenalB, I can reproduce this issue and we are hunting down that bug now. 💜

Great to read that, @ag_andrew ! :+1:
Actually I'm using 80400033 NIGHTLY and this bug still sucks. Looking forward to a fix. :)

Just installed build 80400039-NIGHTLY, and it seems like the issue is fixed! Collection and selected category is remembered when restarting 1Password. :love:

Thanks! :+1:
