How to make a 'collection' the default selection?

I have a few archived password vaults and don't want the items included in searches and daily use. It was easy to deselect those vaults in previous versions of 1Password, but with 1Password 8 I had to create a 'collection' that includes only the password vaults I want to see. However, every time I open the app it defaults to my main account view, which includes all the other archived items. I have to manually select the collection to filter out the unwanted items every time. This happens even when I'm still logged in and just minimize/maximize the program.

Is there a way to completely remove unwanted vaults/items from the main view so my searching is not cluttered with unwanted items (that I don't want to delete)? This was seamless on the previous versions but I'm having trouble making it work on 1Password 8.

Thank you.


1Password Version: 8.9.4
Extension Version: Not Provided

    Still having the issue but doesn't always happen. Haven't been able to figure out what behavior causes the issue. When 1Password switches back to the default account view, it also sorts entries by "date modified" instead of "Title," the latter being the view I want to keep it on.

    Hi tastyroadkill:

    In that case, I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac:

    Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com.

    "and when you maximize 1Password for Mac, "

    Slight clarification: Every time I log in to the MacOS app, the default view is my All Accounts instead of the collection I created. I have to select the collection each time, but I want to have the collection be the default view.

    Hi tastyroadkill:

    Just to confirm, you have a collection selected, and when you maximize 1Password for Mac, 1Password switches to showing All Accounts? Let me know.
