[Feature request] Block install from SYSTEM context

Please make the Windows installer context aware, and block installs from "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" / S-1-5-18.
* Also if installing silently with "--silent".

I've only tried with version 7 from following URL:

1Password Version: 7.7.810
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 10, 11

    Thanks for the update, that's some solid troubleshooting!

    We'll add this to our internal feedback so we can look into it further :)

    The issues I experienced with the --silent flag seems to be related to Exploit Protection/ Windows Defender Exploit Guard. Tried it on a non Intune managed Hyper-V machine, worked no problem. Only difference I can think of is Intune Security Baseline. Also found this:

    Will tell if I find a solution that does not involve disabling Security Baseline all together.

    Thanks for writing in and letting us know!

    I've let the team know that you're seeing issues with the "--silent" install flag, and we're investigating internally to see if we can reproduce this behavior.
