Hello 1PW Team,

I use the latest Beta 8.10.36 under Fedora 40 KDE (Version 6), installed with RPM package.

I have the problem that "attach file" or "choose icon" don't work. When I click on "attach file" or "choose icon" nothing happened.

What do you need from me to investigate in this issue?

Greeting, Tom


1Password Version: 8.10.36
Extension Version: Not Provided

Hello @majortom! 👋

I'm sorry that you're unable to attach a file to an item in 1Password. This is a known issue that our development team is currently testing a fix for in the latest beta version of 1Password for Linux:

We’ve fixed an issue where the file selector didn’t open when you tried to add an attachment.

If you'd like to help us test the fix then you can find instructions on how to switch to the beta here: Use 1Password beta releases

Once testing verifies that the fix works without issues, it'll be included in the stable version as soon as possible.

I take it this remains an issue. I am on version 8.10.76 on Fedora 42 KDE, and nothing happens when clicking "Attach a File."

Hmm ... nothing happens when clicking "Open and Fill" by the web URL, either.

I"m sorry that you're still seeing the issue. The issue should have been resolved for most folks but there are a few edge cases that are still being investigated. The team has a few workarounds that they can suggest and I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Linux device:

Hello @1P_Dave,

your support helped me super fast. Thanks for the great support. My support ID is [#WWK-32969-319]

The problem was, that Yama is absent or ptrace_scope is set to 0

With this command I was able to solve the issue permanently


echo "kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.d/99-ptrace-scope.conf
sudo sysctl --system

I would never have found this solution myself. As a suggestion it would be great if you can implement an check function into 1Password that notifies the user, if there a problems with the OS to run 1PW correct and the steps to solve it.

Best, Thomas

I'm glad that the support team was able to help! Thanks for sharing the workaround that applied to your specific case with the community. 🙂

Thanks for the suggestion! I've passed it along to the team internally.
