Chrome updated over the weekend. I'm running Beta Chrome. It's version popped to 100.0.4896.30. The 1password extension is not recognizing Chrome any more despite the fact that it is upgraded. Also, 1PasswordSLSNativeMessengeHost appears to be opening one instance for every tab and taking all of my CPU. Yes, I have too many tabs open, but that's not been happening up until this point. If I disable the extension this does not happen. 1Password Version: 7.9.1 Extension Version: 2.3.0 OS Version: 12.2.1

Hi @bhive01: Thanks for letting us know about this! Chrome recently changed their browser code signature certificate in recent updates of the Beta channel of Chrome. As a result of this, until 1Password 7 for Mac has been updated to recognize the new certificate, you may run into issues with newer versions of Chrome communicating with 1Password 7. For the time being, using Chrome stable would be the best bet. Let me know how you get on with that! Jack ref: dev/core/core#13488

I am having a similar issue (multiple processes attributed to 1password on Mac), but I am using a stable version of Chrome. It takes so much memory, that I am having trouble using my computer. Any advice?

Hi @wookieunderwood: The change to the signing certificate has also made it to Chrome stable release. Are you on version 7.9.3 or later of 1Password for Mac? How to keep 1Password up to date Let me know, and if you are, I can dig in further with you. Thanks! Jack

I have the same issue. All relevant software is up to date as I write this on 21 March 2022: 1password version 7.9.3 1password Chrome Extension version 2.3.0 Chrome (stable) Version 99.0.4844.74 (Official Build) (x86_64) MacOS 12.2.1 (21D62) I have to disable the 1password Chrome extension. If I do not it runs away with the entire CPU and a metric shed load of memory. The fans on my mac goes nuts and the room warms up. In short the entire machine runs at a crawl. Regards.

My version of 1Password on Mac is 7.9.3. Chrome version: 99.0.4844.74 for arm64 (stable release). The issue has resurfaced again today. This is the only time I hear fans on my Macbook, so when I've heard them, I immediately checked Activity Monitor and was greeted with multiple 1PasswordSLSNativeMessengeHost processes.

Landed here today from a search for 1PasswordSLSNativeMessengeHost CPU after Activity Monitor showed me something very like the OP's screenshot.

I grabbed 1Password 8 for Mac (8.8.0, to be precise), and I'm pleased to say that the issue seems to be resolved. My fans are quiet!

Thanks for the tip, ag_chantelle!

Sorry for the ongoing trouble here. We've heard some users are still experiencing this issue, despite the update. I can, however, confirm that this issue has been resolved in the new 1Password 8 for Mac. If you're feeling adventurous, and want to take it for a spin, you're welcome to install it from our downloads page.

Thanks for taking this seriously. This is not the kind of software you want to see glitches in.

I just encountered the exact thing described above, and I'm running 1Password for Mac 7.9.4 :-(

Hi everyone,

We believe we've got this fixed up in 1Password for Mac 7.9.4. Please give that a try as soon as the update becomes available for you and let us know how it goes. It is available today for folks who update directly through the app, and will be available through the App Store as soon as it makes it through the submission & approval process.

Version 2.3.3 is a beta release. But the latest stable release version 2.3.2 should work in the same way here, as you can read in the changelog.

Hi, I am also experiencing this issue at the moment.

1Password browser extension version 2.3.2
Chrome Versie 99.0.4844.84
1Password app version 7.3.9
MacOS version 12.2.1 Monterey

I just disabled the option 'Integrate with 1Password app' and now it's working fine again.

Jack_P_1P, 2.3.2 seems to be working fine for me so far. Will share if the issues crop up again.

Jack_P_1P Like @cvince86 mentioned, I'm not seeing a version 2.3.3 in the Chrome store. I downloaded the extension for the first time yesterday and it's 2.3.2.
