Hello NoNeedToPanic! 👋

I'm sorry that you're being prompted to unlock the 1Password extension twice. Can you double-check to make sure that you don't have two different versions of the 1Password extension installed in Edge by opening the following link: edge://extensions/

If you do just have one version of the 1Password extension installed then can you tell me the following: 

  1. Do you actually see a login suggestion on the page like this before you're asked to unlock 1Password a second time:
  2. Do you have any other browsers installed on your Windows PC? Do you see the same issue there? 
  3. How are you unlocking 1Password the first time? From the 1Password desktop app? Or from the icon in Microsoft Edge's toolbar? 

I look forward to hearing from you.

-Dave

Hi Dave, 

To Answer your questions:

  1. No login suggestion is provided
  2. Firefox and Brave are installed but neither uses the 1Password extension
  3. 1Password is unlocked via the Microsoft Edge Browser toolbar only
