how to choose a default vault to use?

I have a singe account with two vaults--personal and work. Almost all the time, I will want to use my personal vault to fill in passwords. For some sites (like PayPal), I have log in credentials for both vaults. When I get to a sign in page, is it possible to have 1PW only show the passwords for the personal vault and not the work vault? I don't want to accidentally sign in to my work account instead of my personal account. Then, if I DID want to use the work vault, how would I switch to it? There's surely a way to do this. Should I have stayed with one vault and used collections? Thanks.

    Hi TigerMO,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    If you'd like to prevent suggestions from a specific vault, you can disable that vault under the Accounts & Vaults in your 1Password extension's settings. Here's how to do that:

    1. Open your browser.
    2. Right-click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar, then select "Settings".
    3. On the left sidebar, select Accounts & Vaults.
    4. De-select the vault you don't want suggestions from.

    Let us know if this works for you.
