Hi @Mathias1pass,

I am sorry to hear you ran into an issue using 1Password 8. Can I ask if you have the 1Password icon set to stay in the menubar when the main app window is closed?

If not, you may be running into a known issue. What happens is, if you have the main app window closed and don't have the 1Password icon in the menu bar, if 1Password locks, the app itself is quitting entirely. Once the application has fully quit, you won't be able to invoke it using a shortcut (which was the same behaviour in 1Password 7).

Does this sound like what is happening in your case?

Alex
