Hi, I thought that unassigning/re-assigning screen recording permissions would resolve the QR scanning feature not functioning properly. I have tried the basic troubleshooting otherwise ... updating ...

I'm a bit curious as to what people are seeing here. In 1P7 on Mac, clicking the 'scan QRCode' button would bring up a window with a viewfinder on it which we were meant to centre on the QRCode to be scanned.
In my installation of 1P8 (current release), absolutely nothing happens. I click on the little QRCode button in the new login item editing window, and nothing at all happens. Ever. Regardless of what website I'm on. Am I meant to see the same kind of window as in 1P7? Is 1P8 somehow scanning my screen looking for QRCodes automatically (if so, I really wish it wouldn't)?
