    Hi @dpaq,

    Thanks for writing in.

    Right now, 1Password on Windows doesn't have a QR barcode scanner built-in, it is something we will add to 1Password 6 for Windows in the near future but no ETA yet.

    Depending on your site, it would have an option to give you the secret key instead of the QR barcode. You can enter the secret in the secret field while entering your site's account in the account field. Here's an example for Dropbox: https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/comment/213943/#Comment_213943
