Thank you for writing in regarding your experience unlocking multiple accounts in 1Password. 1Password requires that you unlock each account using its own account password since this is the secret that decrypts the information stored in each account. With that said, I do have some suggestions that will allow you to unlock both accounts at once rather than needing to unlock them separately.
The first suggestion would be to set up Windows Hello to unlock 1Password, which will allow you unlock all of your the accounts added to the 1Password app at once: Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC
The second suggestion would be to ensure that all of the accounts you've added to 1Password have the same account password. This will allow you to unlock all of the accounts that use an account password at once by entering that single password, rather than needing to enter a different password for each account. You can read more about this here: How to use multiple accounts
Let me know if these suggestions help. If they don’t work for your particular use case then tell me a little more about your situation and I can help further.
