1Password stealing focus from Chrome

Hi all,

For a few days now, I've been having issues with 1Password and Chrome on Mac. When browsing, the 1Password desktop app randomly activates and steals focus from the browser, causing me to stop writing in text boxes, having to click once more for links etc. If I happen to have the 1Password main window open in the background, it pops up to the top.

Also the Chrome plugin has been really slow, loads for 10 seconds on menu bar icon click and requires me to enter my password far too often.

Is this an issue with 1Password, Chrome or macOS?

1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.10.0 (81000055)
Extension Version: 2.7.0
OS Version: macOS Ventura 13.2.1
Browser:_ Chrome

macOS

I'm running Google Chrome Version 111.0.5563.146 (Official Build) (arm64) on a MacBook Pro M1.

1Password is on 8.10.3. I had to click on this browser window 4 times to finish typing these two lines. :)

I seemed to solve it by going to "Settings > Advanced > UNTICK: "Keep detail windows on top".

Dang, I need to read gooder - just saw the above.

Well, I did, and I quit/relaunched 1Password and Google Chrome, but still happens.

Apologies, I'm not sure if your trouble was resolved in the end. Or if only on set of instructions failed you? Can you clarify?

I've spent more time troubleshooting than I care to. I removed the browser extension.
