Manually add a browser to 1Password in Windows 11

As the title says.
I noticed it isn't possible to add a browser to the 1Password desktop app in Windows 11, in Macos and Linux you can. Why is that? 

In my case I am using Zen browser. The desktop app and the browser extension are not connected, like as in Edge or Firefox. Which means if I want to activate the browser extension I need my master password for that, for the desktop app I can use Windows Hello. Also, the desktop app and the browser extension do not sync.

Hello @Fresco! 👋

Thanks for reaching out! The feature needs to be built separately for macOS and Windows (due to the different nature of these platforms) and other important work that needs to be completed for the Windows platform has so far needed to be prioritized for our Windows developers. I've let the team know that you're eager to see the feature be built and released for Windows in the future. 

You can find the latest update here. Since there's an existing thread for this topic, I'll close this one.
