1Password for Windows Not Moving Password Category Items to Login Category [Refresh issue]

Michael Shingledecker

I created three passwords using 1Password for Windows which 1Password classified as "Passwords." Because 1Password for Windows does not have the "Convert to Login" feature (very annoying BTW that only the MacOS version has this feature), I used my iMac to convert these password entries to logins. While this change is reflected properly on my MacOS and iOS devices, the Windows version still has them listed under "Passwords" instead of "Logins." The entries were updated with the changes I made when I converted them.

Hi there @Michael Shingledecker,

Thank you for getting in touch and reporting this! :+1:

Since I was able to reproduce this incorrect behaviour on my side, we might have a bug here. I will make sure to pass it along to our team, so we could investigate. In the meantime, please try to manually recreate this Login item in 1Password 6 by manually copying and pasting it from a Password item.

If the bug is confirmed, it will be fixed in future updates of 1Password for Windows. We also have plans to add "Convert to Login" feature to 1Password for Windows, so please stay tuned.

If you have any additional questions about this situation, please feel free to raise them in your reply. Thanks!

Cheers,
Greg

@Michael Shingledecker,

We took a closer look at this issue, so I have some news for you: please try to completely restart 1Password 6 for Windows, it should update the category of your items. Let me know how if it works. Thank you! :+1:

Cheers,
Greg

@Greg, thanks for the suggestions. This morning I launched 1Password and this time the three passwords in question were converted to logins. I did not do anything other than launch the app so I'm not sure what happened.

@Michael Shingledecker,

Please try to restart the app in the future, if you every bump into these issues again. It will be fixed in future updates, as we found out what is going on there. Thank you for your report! :chuffed:

We are always here for you, so please do not hesitate to contact us anytime.

Cheers,

OK, please consider adding the "Convert to Login" function for future Windows and iOS releases. It really comes in handy!

Hi @Michael Shingledecker,

We agree, it is a very nice feature and we do plan to add it to all 1Password apps, it's definitely coming to the Windows version but we don't have a timeframe on this. We have a lot of things already planned for the next update.

By the way, this refresh issue with the converted Login items has been fixed internally, so it should be in the next update.
