Password links I delete keep reappearing. Why?

I recently created a new 1password account and deleted my old account. I had many duplicate listings for password links. I deleted the duplicates. They keep reappearing . Why and how do I delete the duplicates?


1Password Version: 7.9.3
Extension Version: 7.9.3
OS Version: macOS 12.3

    To delete an item, right click on it in the item list, and then select delete:

    If you want to prevent any possibility of recovering that item once deleted:

    1. Sign in to your account at https://start.1password.com/
    2. Open the vault that contained the item.
    3. Click View Recently Deleted in the sidebar.
    4. Click Destroy next to the item.

    I hope that helps!

    I have a password item for PhotoWoa. _It has my log in name, my password, and the internet address. When I delete it because I have two of the same file it later reappears in my account list. Why? How do I permeantly get rid of the duplicate file?

    Hi @larrybir

    Thanks for taking the time to write in. We'd be happy to help. To get started, could you please define what a "password link" means to you in this context? Perhaps walk us through how to get to what you're seeing?

    Thanks!
