Bring 'custom trusted browser' feature to Windows (Opera)

Following on for the various Opera-related requests that are 'solved' with either 'use a supported browser' or 'solved on mac': please bring this feature to Windows.

My personal motivation is Chrome's recent neutering of ad blockers, combined with the excessive use of Windows system notifications for feature advertisement by Firefox and Edge, and the pushing of Web3/crypto nonsense in Brave.

    Hello folks, 

    I'm happy to share that you can now add Opera as an additional browser to 1Password for Windows. Follow these steps: 

    1. Install 1Password in Opera from the Chrome Web Store: 1Password – Password Manager
    2. Add Opera as an additional browser to 1Password: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app


    A couple of notes:

    • Make sure that Opera is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder.
    • Opera is not an officially supported browser and you might run into unexpected issues.

    Hello @fredemmott! 👋

    Thank you for the feedback! I've filed your feature request with our product team so that they're aware that you'd like to see support for adding unsupported browsers be added to 1Password for Windows in a future update.

      I second this request

      I'm using ungoogled-chromium on Windows 11 and I'd like to allow ungoogled-chromium to integrate with 1Password while taking my own responsibility, but the button is not there

        Hey, the option with integrating custom browser has appeared for me on 1Password for Windows 8.11.23 (81123001)

        But the "Add Browser" button only works with browsers that are:

        • In C:/Program Files
        • Trusted

        I moved my ungoogled-chromium installation to C:/Program Files, but now I'm getting this message

        What makes a browser trusted? If I knew maybe I could contact ungoogled-chromium devs and they could sign it or whatever is needed. I understand the signature verification is for security — would still appreciate an opt-in override like on Mac if it can be done safely on Windows.

          @shipurjan 

          Thanks for trying the new trusted browsers feature in 1Password for Windows! So that the team and I can look into why you're unable to add Ungoogle Chromium to 1Password, I'd like to ask you to create and share a 1Password diagnostics report from your Windows PC:

          Send a diagnostics report (Windows)

          Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support@1password.com

          With your email please include:

          You should receive an automated reply from our BitBot assistant with a Support ID number.  Please post that number here.  Thanks very much!

          I have the same issue with Opera not being a Trusted Browser.  What is the point of Add New Browser when the trusted browser requirement overrides adding a browser.

          Thanks for the reply. Make sure that Opera is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder then follow these steps: Connect an additional browser to 1Password

          If that still doesn't work then are you seeing an error message? If you are can you post a screenshot of the error message?

          Opera is installed in C:\Program Files folder with admin permissions and not located in AppData folder.  Opera does not trust Opera.exe.  See screenshots:

          Hey!

          Its working - if you haven't tried have latest versions of 1Password, Opera, Plugin, Windows.

          1. Open 1Password app
          2. Go to Settings > Browser > Connect to additional browser > klick "Add Browser". A File-Window will open. Now navigate to installation Path of Opera or see 3.
          3. Locate your Install Path of Opera 
            1. Right Click on Opera Logo and click "Properties"
            2. Copy the path of General/Location or Shortcut/Target
            3. Insert it in the File-Window and klick "Open"
          4. Opera should now be added into the list. Try to Lock/Unlock 1Password via App or Browser Extension. It will/should lock/unlock either way.

          Hope it works for you as well :-)

            Confirming Opera can be added as a Trusted Browser.

            Thanks for the heads up!
