What am I doing wrong?
I attached a document to a vault. However, when I go to the document using the finder and click on it, it opens up without asking for the 1Password, password. I would think anything I put into a vault would be protected and the vault would have to be opened before access to the file is allowed.
I'm guessing I did something wrong?
1Password Version: 5.0.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: OSX10
Sync Type: iCloud

When you attached that file to a record in 1Password, it didn't do anything to the original file or its location. So it will always behave as it did before. If you want to deny access to it, unless the master password is entered, you'll need to delete it from its original location, and let it only exist inside your master password protected vault.

Hi @dck1862,
hawkmoth is exactly right. Attaching a file to an item in 1Password is a bit like attaching a file to an email: it creates a new copy that exists there. So once it's in 1Password, you can safely delete the document from wherever else you have it on your computer. Then it will only be accessible from within 1Password. I hope this helps!

Well now, I've learned something new in life! Thank you both so much. I thought I was loosing my mind. I will delete it. Or put it on a DVD archive, just in case.
Thank you so much!

@dck1862: You are most welcome! Glad hawkmoth and Vee were able to help sort out how attachments work in 1Password for you. :chuffed:
