For the same password, Mac and windows 10 show different strength bars.

I recently installed 1Password on my Mac, and I found out that for the same password, even though on my Mac the password strength meter shows full bar, on my windows 10, it only shows nearly full bar, and vice versa. Although on windows 10 the version is a trial version (4.6.1.616 precisely), I am wondering if that could be the culprit? I.e. having different versions across different devices.

Thank you for your help in advance, have a nice day :)

1Password Version: 6.6.3
Extension Version: 4.6.3
OS Version: OS Sierra 10.12.1

    Hi @CyberNewbie,

    Thanks for asking us about that! It sounds like you're running into a known issue in the latest version of 1Password for Mac which causes it to show some pre-existing passwords as weak even though they should be strong. I apologize for the inconvenience! Our developers are working on this, although I don't have a timeframe for when a fix will be available.

    Aside from that bug, I hope you're enjoying 1Password! If you have more questions or need anything else, please let us know. :)
