Hello KMWAZ, thanks for writing in. I'm very sorry to hear that one of your passwords and email was stolen and put on a website somewhere.

There isn't a way to search for a password that starts with specific characters and ends with a known character. However, you can certainly search in the 1Password desktop app for part of a password. For example, open and unlock the 1Password desktop app and in the search field type in the first two known characters.

I realize this may not be ideal because it searches all fields within your 1Password vault. I do see the usefulness for searching 1Password this way, so I've shared your feedback with our product team so we can improve 1Password in the future.

I hope that helps, KMWAZ.
