Brave Plugin asking for Authentication
Is anyone else having the strange issue where when using Brave on Windows 11 and the 1password plugin? If 1password is locked, unlocking creates a popup saying Authentication Required, and a new browser tab opens prompting for email, secret key and password. These can all be ignored and I am signed in by just entering the password in the normal unlock popup screen. This only started a few days back.
I fixed it.
- Disabled browser connections in 1Password.
- Removed plugin from Brave
- Rebooted
- Enabled connections in 1password
- Reinstalled plugin
- Sorted

Is it just me experiencing this? It is now also happening in Firefox.
I should have said I am running 8.11.18.36 of the plugin in Brave 1.84.141
