1Password intercepting Microsoft Word .docx files MacOS

After having 1Password for a couple years, I recently installed Office 365. When I double click on Word docx files in the finder, instead of opening Word, it opens 1Password. If I log into 1Password at that point, it brings me to a "New Item" menu, which gives me options to replace my file, add more, type notes about it or tag the file. All sorts of things I don't want to do. Especially when what I really want the double click to do is open Word and looking at the file.


1Password Version: 8.10.46
Extension Version: 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8
OS Version: MacOS 15.01
Browser: Finder

Hello @abqmichaelj! 👋

I'm sorry that a Word document is being opened incorrectly on your Mac. Can you check to see that you've set Word to open .docx files rather than 1Password:

Let me know if that doesn't help.
