Hello @Zitan! 👋

I'm sorry that you're running into an issue where 1Password is closing between uses. As a first step can you check the following:

  1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
  2. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
  3. Click on Settings.
  4. Click on General.
  5. Make sure that "Keep 1Password in the menu bar" is turned on.

If that doesn't resolve the issue then can you tell me how you're "exiting" 1Password? Are you closing the main window? From the Dock? Or from the menu bar icon?
