    Not sure what's the current state of this issue, but I just stumbled upon this exact issue. I wasn't able to get the Chrome extension to connect to the app as well as using the recently announced Passkey feature for Windows.

    I got similar logs to the ones above, which reminded me that I recently moved (possibly by uninstalling and reinstalling) the app from drive C: to D:. I tried moving the app back to drive C:, and this issue magically disappeared.

    In case if you still need any help, I'm happy to provide additional debugging information. Please let me know.

If I want to install MSIX version should I remove 1Password EXE/MSI installed version? Secondly will be some restrictions, limited functionality with MSIX installed 1Password? For an example Yubico Authenticator from Microsoft Store doesn't let to change PIN or read from device saved credentials, I can't remember. But if you install from website exe version then there is no issue.

    Hello! As mentioned in the post, we recommend removing the EXE/MSI installed version but it is not mandatory. Once the MSIX is installed, you’ll no longer be able to open other versions of 1Password and will be prompted to uninstall old versions, if opened.

    In regards to functionality restrictions, some minor functionality will not work with the Microsoft Store MSIX installed versions of 1Password. Currently, we have determined that 'drag and drop' and 'Type in Window' filling functionality will not be available with the Microsoft Store version. However, this functionality will continue to work for directly downloaded MSIX installed versions.
