Password after update.

As a user on the Beta update cycle, I find I'm entering my password every time I get an update. I assume this is because you keep the credentials in the app, and you restart the app after the update. Wouldn't there be some secure way that you could transfer the credentials to the new version?

    Hi robert1p:

    If you're on a supported device, you can enable "Use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello" in Settings > Advanced. This will allow you to use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password after you quit and re-open the app (like from an update), or after you restart your computer.

    Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC

    Let me know how you get on with that!

    I guess this is more of an issue because I'm on the Nightly cycle. Thus, I have updated my settings to the Beta cycle; once the next Beta comes out, it shouldn't be so annoying.
