Automatic unlock prompt at boot possible? [Yes, add 1Password.exe to Startups folder]

Puresilence

Hi,

it would be very usefull to me if 1Password's unlock windows would popup at Windows boot time. Then i could unlock 1Password and use it for this session. Is this possible? Perhaps with a commandline parameter?

Greetings
Stefan

Hi @Puresilence,

Yes, add the 1Password.exe file to your Startup folder and Windows will open it for you upon reboots.

1. Click on the start menu, search for run and launch the desktop app called Run.
2. In Run dialog, enter shell:startup
3. Windows File Explorer will open a folder called startup, this is where you need to store the shortcut to 1Password.exe.
4. To create the shortcut, open a new Windows File Explorer, go to your Program Files (x86) > 1Password directory, right-click on the 1Password.exe to select Send to > Desktop (Create Shortcut)
5. Go to your desktop and drag the shortcut for 1Password to the startup folder.

Restart your computer and 1Password should start up waiting for you to unlock.

This would work for any program, not just 1Password.

Works like a charm!
