How do I get the Chrome extension working with the local version of 1Pass 7?

I've been using the addins for Chrome and Firefox for some time, but Chrome stopped working recently.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the extension, but now it only seems to want me to log in for the online service.

Maybe local DBs are being deprecated? Is there an older extension that still works?


1Password Version: 7.6.794
Extension Version: 1.23.1
OS Version: Windows 10.0.19042 Build 19042
Sync Type: local

    Hi @windowsGuy!

    As I see you are using the new 1Password in the browser extension formerly known as 1PasswordX. To get local vaults working you have to use the classic extension together with the Windows desktop app.

    So please remove the extension and install the classic one.

    You can find it here:

    @windowsGuy:

    DenalB is correct: just make sure you download the classic extension :+1: Let us know if you have any other questions!

    That did the tick, thanks!

    I don't know why it stopped working in the first place but reinstalling the proper version has everything sorted out.

    Appreciate the help.

    However, I'm switching may working platform among Windows, macOS and Linux, which cause the extension inconsistency (browser may sync the integrations among platforms). I know that current browser extension works well with macOS, so could it be ez to integrate the feature to Windows and Linux? Thanks!
