Hello krumeich! 👋

I'm sorry to hear that you're unable to find an item. The "AccountExports" files are offline, local backups of 1Password membership data for a local backup feature that isn't finished yet. At the moment, there's no way to restore the files found in the AccountExports folder.

1Password will not delete any of your items unless you've chosen to delete them. If you're unable to find a saved item can you please see if you can find the missing information in a previous version of an item, in the Archive, or in Recently Deleted: View and restore previous versions of items
