Update to 1Password for Windows 8.10.22-13 (beta channel) fails

This morning I was told that "1Password was unable to complete installation and will roll back any changes.". Tried twice more, same. Note that I have the app on the beta channel.

I'm ok, since installed version 8.10.22 is working fine, but I will eventually want to upgrade, and anyway, I thought you'd want to know.


1Password Version: 8.10.22 beta channel
Extension Version: 2.17.1
OS Version: Windows 10
Browser: Chrome

Hello @lesster! 👋

I'm sorry that you're running into trouble when updating the 1Password for Windows app to the latest beta version. There are a few reasons why an update may fail. Sometimes antivirus or antimalware software may block the 1Password update, or in other cases a pending Windows update may be a factor. The team and I are here to help until you're running the latest beta.

As a first step, make sure that you're running the latest version of Windows 10 and that there are no pending updates: Update Windows - Microsoft Support

Next, I'd like you to restart your Windows PC into Safe Mode with Networking mode. You can find a guide with instructions here: Start your PC in safe mode in Windows - Microsoft Support

Once you've restarted into Safe Mode with Networking, unlock 1Password and try to update from inside the app again. Does the update complete successfully now?

I'm all set, thank you.
Sorry not to reply, just forgot, and now it's been so long, I don't remember what I ended up doing or what fixed.
But, sorted!
