2 years ago1Password 7 - 7.9.833 "Dismiss" button of the 1Password 8 advertisement does not close.
Hello,
in the update released yesterday (7.9.833) with the "IMPROVEMENTS" "more information about 1Password 8 for Windows being available in various spots" = crappy advertising, the "Dismiss" button of the Sidebar 1P8 Ad does not work. The window does not close when you click the button, even after restarting 1P mini.

(This is of course not a bug but a feature to annoy users even more with the 1Password 8 ads. If you are not even able to create a simple button to close a popup these days... :/ )
1Password Version: 7.9.833
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Win 11

Hello everyone,
I'm sorry that you're running into an issue with the sidebar in 1Password 7 for Windows. I've checked with our developers and the only thing that was updated with the sidebar was the icon in the upgrade notification. We've opened an internal issue to investigate further if that change may have broken anything or if this issue is unrelated to the latest update.
As a note, 1Password 7 is no longer being regularly updated (aside from major bugs and security issues) and I recommend updating to 1Password 8 when you can to take advantage of faster bug fixes and new features.

Of course, to make even more money. That you can't manage to answer or fix this in 3 days is [profanity removed]. What can be fixed in a few minutes is again stretched to the maximum. It's probably time to switch to a competitor...
I can see it coming: Some [insult removed] will reappear in tears and post a condolence message about how sorry he is and how it's not supposed to be this way. Everything so desired!

Same. Why the heck update app just to make it worse?

Same issue. I find it really annoying when I see a button that does not work, especially to get rid of advertising I find unnecessary. I uninstalled it and reverted back to version 7.9.832. I downloaded it from the changelog and disabled automatic updates. Now I just have to deal with the occasional update reminder pop-up at least until I see another update to the app....

By the way: It even shows the control (the small arrow to "collapse") inverted, at least I would not expected an "up"-arrow to collapse and and "down"-arrow to expand. So, that's a bug.

Same problem here, multiple installations.
(Yes, it happened only a few times before ...)
