Deleting duplicate items from migration

Hi @ag_ana:

I have a similar situation to @tkny. I transitioned to the family plan a few years ago after being a long time user of the Mac version of 1Password, and like @tkny kept my primary vault, but did eventually remove it. However, I have a LOT of duplicates that were generated when (at some point), exported the data from an older vault in the application to CSV and then imported it into what ids now my Private vault.

The Help->Tools->Clean up duplicate items, doesn't recognise these duplicates as duplicates at all - maybe because there is TAG saying CSV Import, or in some cases the last modified Time is a tiny bit different - but the username and passwor etc are the same.

Removal of duplicates seems to have been a problem for 1Password for years now. Perhaps as users we need to be able to choose the parameters of fields that are compared to determine if a pw IS a duplicate (maybe by an "advanced" option - similar to duplicate file finding applications that allow for instance a 1 hr time difference on the timestamp or tolerant of up to a defined number of seconds, and selection of the fields that are used for identification of duplicates - then display the newest version, plus identified duplicates with these by default selected for deletion, but with the option to deselect them. You could even give the option to create a 'backed up passwords' vault.
GIVE US users our passwords back!!
