    Hey @frustrated2! It sounds like that error is coming from the classic extension installed in your browser. The classic extension is no longer receiving development updates and is not supported with 1Password 8. Let's remove the classic extension and make sure that you're using the new extension going forward:

    1. Copy and paste chrome://extensions to your Chrome browser and click Enter.
    2. Look for 1Password extension (desktop app required) and click to Remove it.
    3. It sounds like you do have the new extension but you can click here to check on it: 1Password - Password Manager
    4. Make sure that the new extension is pinned to Chrome's toolbar: https://support.1password.com/missing-browser-button/#chrome

    After that, please try things out with the new extension and let me know how everything goes.
