I can't turn on touch id on my MacBook

Hello @MikeMikeMike! 👋

I'm sorry that you're unable to turn on Touch ID for 1Password on your Mac. Please try the following steps:

1. Completely turn off your Mac and then turn it on to restart it. (Don't skip this step.)
2. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
3. Choose Apple Menu  > System Settings, then click Touch ID & Password.
4. Turn off all of the features, then turn all of them back on again.
5. Go back to 1Password and choose 1Password > Settings from the menu bar.
6. Click the Security icon, then turn on "Touch ID".
7. Lock 1Password by choosing 1Password > Lock from the menu bar.
8. Now try unlocking 1Password using Touch ID.

For many people just restarting their Mac gets Touch ID working again, if it does for you as well then you can skip the rest of the steps. 🙂

Please let me know if you run into any issues or get stuck anywhere.

I carefully followed each step, including step 1 where I completely shut down my MacBook, and step 4 where I turned everything off and the all back on.
The switch for Touch ID in 1P is still grayed out
