Dropdown

Dear community

I have installed 1PW 8 and when I open it I get a dropdown to choose from.
Which setting is the correct one? Can this cause a security risk?

Thanks for the help.

Kind regards
Paul

    Hey @remmurT,

    We suggest selecting 'Auf jeder website immer erlauben...'. I appreciate your concerns so I'll explain what this means:

    • The ability to scan (read) the page HTML to determine if it’s fillable. This also tells us where/when to inject the inline menu.
    • The ability to autofill (write) to the site. While performing an autofill, it effectively changes the HTML. When you submit the autofill, it will allow you to authenticate it properly.

    If you still have any concerns, I recommend going through this explanation of our security and privacy: About 1Password browser permissions .
