Bring 'custom trusted browser' feature to Windows

Following on for the various Opera-related requests that are 'solved' with either 'use a supported browser' or 'solved on mac': please bring this feature to Windows.

My personal motivation is Chrome's recent neutering of ad blockers, combined with the excessive use of Windows system notifications for feature advertisement by Firefox and Edge, and the pushing of Web3/crypto nonsense in Brave.

    I have the same issue with Opera not being a Trusted Browser.  What is the point of Add New Browser when the trusted browser requirement overrides adding a browser.

      Thanks for the reply. Make sure that Opera is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder then follow these steps: Connect an additional browser to 1Password

      If that still doesn't work then are you seeing an error message? If you are can you post a screenshot of the error message?

        Hello Dave,

        Opera is installed in with admin permission C:\Program Files folder and I followed the steps indicated.  Opera displayed error message abvove:

         

  • Hello folks, 

    I'm happy to share that you can now add Opera as an additional browser to 1Password for Windows. Follow these steps: 

    1. Install 1Password in Opera from the Chrome Web Store: 1Password – Password Manager
    2. Add Opera as an additional browser to 1Password: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app


    A couple of notes:

    • Make sure that Opera is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder.
    • Opera is not an officially supported browser and you might run into unexpected issues.

    Hey, the option with integrating custom browser has appeared for me on 1Password for Windows 8.11.23 (81123001)

    But the "Add Browser" button only works with browsers that are:

    • In C:/Program Files
    • Trusted

    I moved my ungoogled-chromium installation to C:/Program Files, but now I'm getting this message

    What makes a browser trusted? If I knew maybe I could contact ungoogled-chromium devs and they could sign it or whatever is needed. I understand the signature verification is for security — would still appreciate an opt-in override like on Mac if it can be done safely on Windows.

      Thanks for trying the new trusted browsers feature in 1Password for Windows! So that the team and I can look into why you're unable to add Ungoogle Chromium to 1Password, I'd like to ask you to create and share a 1Password diagnostics report from your Windows PC:

      Send a diagnostics report (Windows)

      Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support@1password.com

      With your email please include:

      You should receive an automated reply from our BitBot assistant with a Support ID number.  Please post that number here.  Thanks very much!

    I second this request

    I'm using ungoogled-chromium on Windows 11 and I'd like to allow ungoogled-chromium to integrate with 1Password while taking my own responsibility, but the button is not there

  • Hello fredemmott​! 👋

    Thank you for the feedback! I've filed your feature request with our product team so that they're aware that you'd like to see support for adding unsupported browsers be added to 1Password for Windows in a future update.
