Login to two different people on 1password 8 on Windows
Hi, my wife and I have a family account on 1password. We have separate accounts with separate logins. Is there an easy way to swap between her account and my account on the 1password app for Windows?...

1Password TeamHey @golder, thanks for reaching out.
This is the expected behavior as it is currently not possible to add multiple user accounts from the same 1Password Families account to the same 1Password app.
One way to separate between users on the same computer is with separate Windows user accounts. Microsoft has a guide on how to set this up available here:
An alternative if this is more of a one-off or infrequent use type thing might be to just use the web app - https://start.1password.com/
Another alternative would be to setup multiple browser profiles. For instance if you use Chrome:
* Share Chrome with others - Computer - Google Chrome Help
Once you've installed 1Password on the new browser profile, you can disable the desktop app integration and it will work as a standalone application allowing you to add the other family account.
How to disable desktop app integration:
- Right click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar.
- Select
Settings. - Under General settings > Disable
Integrate with 1Password app - Sign in to the other family account in the browser extension.
Let me know if this helps or if you have any further questions.
Ali
