3 years ago1Password Chrome Extension Stops Working
I'm new to 1password (lastpass convert) and I'm doing a lot of resetting passwords.
At least a couple times a day I got to a site after, and 1password offers a new password to fill. But when I click, nothing happens. In the browser dev tools, when I click, there's an error on the console.
Uncaught (in promise) Error: Error response received for message
at menu.js:4:4508
Similarly, if I click on the browser extension, there's a new password to copy. But clicking copy gives an error:
The only way I can get it working again is to restart the browser entirely, which is quite annoying.
1Password Version: Not Provided
Extension Version: 2.6.0
OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04
Browser:_ Chrome

- Former MemberHey @pljnn - I'm sorry to hear you've bumped into this issue as well. Our team is actively investigating this issue, but I have a couple questions on what you're seeing, if you don't mind: - Do you use the 1Password app (desktop app) as well? 
- If yes, does the browser extension and the desktop app lock/unlock along with each other, or do they need to be unlocked separately?
 
- Do you have two-factor authentication enabled for your 1Password account?
- If you manually lock/unlock the browser extension, does it improve the behaviour for you (in the same way that reinstalling does)? Here's how to manually lock/unlock:
- Right click the 1Password icon in the web browser's toolbar, and select 'Lock'.
- Wait a few seconds, left click the locked 1Password icon, then enter your account password and unlock the extension once more.
- Test things out again.
 
 I look forward to your reply!

- Former MemberIs there an update to this? I run into this exact issue and have to uninstall and reinstall the extension to get it working.

- steph_giles1Password Team Thanks @dfors, let us know how you get on! 
- Former MemberI've been traveling away from the computer in question, and only just now got the beta installed. I will report back. 
- Former Member@dfors I'm sorry that the suggestions did not help. As Steph mentioned, the issue that you've encountered is something that our developers are investigating. They've recently release a fix for one possible cause of the problem, and it is available in the beta version of the extension. Could you try the beta version of the extension to see if the behavior improves? Here's how to get the beta extension: https://support.1password.com/betas/#install-a-beta-release-of-the-1password-extension Please let us know how that goes! 
- Former MemberHello, Unfortunately, I started getting the same error again today. It pops to offer auto fill, but clicking just does nothing an in the dev tools console it says the same message:
