5 years agoCan I use 1Password on Windows 10 without using the 1Password browser extension on Google Chrome?
I am running Windows 10 on my laptop PC. I am running LastPass on my Google Chrome LastPass browser extension. I am considering changing from LastPass to 1Password. I want both LastPass and 1Password...

Welcome to 1Password!
Yes, you can install the 1Password desktop app without installing the extension in Chrome. But that means you won't be able to autofill or save new logins with 1Password when you visit websites.
If you are trying to compare 1Password with Last Pass, perhaps it is best to try them one by one. For example:
- Install both 1Password and Last Pass in Chrome, but disable one of them in Chrome's extensions settings.
- Use Chrome for a day or two with the extension you left enabled.
- After a day or two, go into Chrome's extensions settings and switch between the two - turn off the one that you used now, and turn on the one that was disabled.
- Use Chrome with the other extension for a day or two and so on.
Repeat this process until you come to a conclusion of which one you like better :)
You can get to Chrome's extensions settings by typing chrome://extensions
in the address bar.
I hope you'll find this useful!
