Removing Smart Folder deletes items inside?!

This runs counter to every app I've ever used including the Finder. Deleting a Smart Folder should do NOTHING to the items it finds, it's a glorified search result.

    Hi @velgor,

    You're absolutely right, it doesn't do anything beside deleting the search information saved for that smart folder.

    Have you gone into All Items and see if those items are there?

    I just created a new smart folder, searched for all items that have a weak password, and save it as such. I then deleted the smart folder, none of the items were deleted, they were still in their categories and nothing was in the Trash either.

    Can you confirm that you're able to reproduce this? Be sure to create a new backup in 1Password via the File Menu > Backup before doing this, so you can quickly restore to it if it goes wrong.
