A backup file is generated every single day on my OneDrive and the files are sync over all my computers. However, I wonder if it is possible to know within the backup file which computer generated the file?

1Password Version: 6.0.1
Extension Version: 4.4.3
OS Version: 10.11.3
Sync Type: Dropbox

    Hey @jfbergeron,

    Thanks for posting your question here in the forum. :chuffed:

    I am wondering about your setup, are you talking about the backups that 1Password creates periodically?

    Those files are saved to your user's Application Support folder on your computer. Beyond that I'm wondering exactly how they end up on your OneDrive?

    To answer your question though, it probably isn't really possible to find out what computer it's from if you took a bunch from different computers and put it all in one folder.

    One of my computer is running 1Password for Windows and it is the culprit.

    Thanks!
