Hello RFisher200! 👋

Thanks for the question! If you have the 1Password for Windows desktop app installed then app integration will result in the desktop app and the browser extension sharing the same lock state according to your auto-lock settings in the desktop app: How to set 1Password to lock automatically

If you'd like to have 1Password in the browser lock when you close the browser then you can either uninstall the desktop app and just use the browser extension or you can turn off app integration so that the desktop app and the browser extension lock and unlock separately (the browser extension will lock when you close your browser):

  1. Open your browser.
  2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings.
  3. Turn off "Integrate this extension with the 1Password desktop app".

I hope that helps.
