1Password for Windows does not fill fields in browser

seanw75

I have the Windows version of 1Password installed. I also have the 1Password Chrome extention installed. However the 1Password app does not connect to the browser, so everytime I wish to fill in a password I either have to manually copy it from the application, or authenticate to the extension (effectively use the extension as a stand alone, seperate form the application). This is a pain since I'd like to use biometrics to open my vaults.

Hi @seanw75,

Thank you for getting in touch!

It sounds like you installed 1Password X, our new extension that works entirely in your browser. Could you please install our standard extension instead and check if it works better for you? Our standard extension communicates with 1Password 7 app installed on your computer, so it should be unlocked automatically, if you unlock the standalone app.

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

I am having a similar problem that started just today. I have a completely different looking extension pop up and it it is not connecting to my vault. I got a message to update my 1PW (I started with V4 for windows) and ended up downloading an installer for V7. I'm not sure how to go backwards. I LOVE this product and have used it since you guys first launched the Mac product. I'm already dying without it!!!

Thanks for the help.

Hi @yainga,

It sounds like you have two different versions of 1Password installed on your PC, so your issue is different. That is why I'd like to ask you to create a Diagnostics Report from 1Password app, where you have all of your data:
