1Password 8 Freezes Chrome when unlocking

This happens sometimes, but it's very very annoying (Chrome freezes entirely for 5-10 seconds):
Chrome v105.0.5195.125
Extension v2.3.8
MacOS v12.5.1
1Password8 - 8.9.4


1Password Version: 8.9.4
Extension Version: 2.3.8
OS Version: MacOS v12.5.1
Browser:_ Chrome

    @trollfred - I have one extension installed only (v2.3.8) with ID = aeblfdkhhhdcdjpifhhbdiojplfjncoa.
    Do you mean you have two 1Password Chrome extensions installed?

    Hi Steph!
    From what I have observed, the problem is not created by the new Chrome extension, but by the old "classical" one (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/1password-extension-deskt/aomjjhallfgjeglblehebfpbcfeobpgk).

    I can tell that, because when I remove the new Chrome extension, the problem persists. And the hang happens when I press CMD+\ which is the shortcut for the legacy old extension.

    Another thing is that even if I remove the old/classical extension from the browser, I still get autofill functionality (or hang) with CMD+\ shortcut, which means, that the extension does not get removed from the browser completely.
    Another thing is with or without the legacy extension installed, if 1Password app is not running, there is no autofill and no hang happening, but if 1Password app is running, sometimes autofill works, but most of the time Chrome just hangs for a long time.

    So I have two questions basically - first one and the most important - how to properly remove the legacy extension from Chrome.
    And the second one - do you intend to fix legacy extension or you are not supporting it any more and suggest to switching to the new one?

    Thanks - I've done all of that + sent the email, but haven't received an automated response yet - checked my spam folder as well...

  • Hey classz, @trollfred,

    I'm sorry for the trouble you are having with 1Password in the browser. If you continue to experience this issue I think it would be useful if we could take a closer look at some logs and what may be going wrong.

    I'd like to ask you to send over a console log from your browser as well as a diagnostics report:

    Please attach the reports to to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com with a link to this thread.

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

    Same with me, once Chrome even crashed in the process...
