Hello @ezfe thanks for reaching out!Based on the behaviour you described it sounds like you're running a known issue that our developers are investigating. Could you try to disable the notification option and see if that improves the behaviour?Open your browser, right-click on the 1Password extension icon in your browser's toolbar and select "Settings".Select "Notifications" from the left-hand menu.Disable the "Allow 1Password to Show Unlock Notifications" option.

Scenario:

I open up my computer, 1Password is locked.
I go to a website and use the `command + \` to autofill a password.
It prompts me to unlock my 1Password. The unlock works, the password is filled, I'm logged in.
The browser extension says "You already have this password saved, you should autofill it next time"

It happens relatively consistently - the extension unlocks but doesn't understand that the global key command was used to autofill.

Open your browser, right-click on the 1Password extension icon in your browser's toolbar and select "Settings".
Select "Notifications" from the left-hand menu.
Disable the "Allow 1Password to Show Unlock Notifications" option.

I'll keep this disabled and see if it re-occurs, thank you for pointing out that option (I definitely want to disable those alerts regardless)
