By the way, you should still be able to use the password generator in other ways, too:
- If you use 1Password for your browser, you should be able to click the 1Password icon in your browser, then the + icon, then Password Generator.
 - If you use 1Password for Windows (Early Access), you should be able to choose new item > password and then click on the password field. That brings up a prompt to "create a new password", which invokes the password generator and lets you tweak the password settings to your liking.
 
I hope these prove handy, but can also understand the appeal of having the password generator in your system tray. Consider it filed!
