I'm a diehard MAC user but started a new job where Windows (10) is a basic requirement. So I was happy to see that I don't have to switch password programs :) - I was directed to download the Windows 10 Beta - but frankly - it's useless. Browser extensions don't work, I cannot add or edit anything in the Beta, web page launch does not work... - while I am quite happy to be a part of a Beta - the basic functions need to work. Am I missing something in the Beta...? Or should I just punt and download the hardened version. The Beta version is 2016.6.403U and I am using this on a Surface Pro 4.

    Hi @Rickleehamilton,

    Are you using 1Password Families or syncing your own vaults via Dropbox? I assume you are syncing your own vaults since you said you can't add/edit items, which is because right now, local vaults are read-only in the beta.

    For now, we recommend using 1Password 4 for Windows, 1Password 6 beta is far from being ready with local vaults. It's a brand new app and it will take us some time to get all features implemented including the extension support.
