Copy Password doesn't work

Hi Team,
when I click in the Early Access version on Copy Password it doesn't work, even if it shows that it copied the password.
I need to enter the Edit Mode and Copy the Password with the Control+C.


1Password Version: 8.1.2-82.BETA
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Windows 10 Build 19043.1110

    When it doesn't work I am able to past in the search field in 1password itself but never inside another app (browser, notepad, etc.)

    Oh that's very interesting. I've passed on that note. Does anyone else here see this behavior when it's not working?

    I can have it working for quite a bit but then also have hours (or even days sometimes) that it won't work When it doesn't work I am able to past in the search field in 1password itself but never inside another app (browser, notepad, etc.). Haven't find how to trigger it though.

    Had it on earlier versions but just updated to 1Password for Windows 8.2.0-56.BETA and still experience it.

    I've definitely been affected by this, but not only on 1P8, but also 1P7 for Windows. I just tried copying different passwords in 1P8, and everything worked without a hitch, so it's absolutely intermittent.

    Hi, folks. It looks like we've seen a report before of the copy functionality intermittently not working on Windows, but we haven't been able to track it down. For those of you who have seen it not working, does it always not work or does it work sometimes?

    For me copy also does not work on Windows.
    I'm on 1Password for Windows 8.2.0-56.BETA and have no problems with copying passwords or my secret key. I'm able to paste it e.g. into the notepad.

    EDIT: On 1Password for Windows 8.2.0-61.NIGHTLY copying works also without any problems.

    For me copy also does not work on Windows.

    It does work on macOS.

    Maybe somewhat related (1Password for Windows 8.2.0-56.BETA), I also noticed the copy functionalities of the following items not working:

    • Account Dropdown -> Setup Another Account
    • Both the Copy of the Secret Key (maybe others) and the Copy Link for the sign in link do not work.

    Hi @KevM92!

    I have just tested it and I was able to copy the password and paste it here.

    For confirmation, is this the Copy button you are referring to?
