    Hello folks, 

    I'm happy to share that you can now add Zen Browser as an additional browser to 1Password for Windows. Follow these steps: 

    1. Install 1Password in Zen Browser from the Firefox Browser Add-ons Store
    2. Add Zen Browser as an additional browser to 1Password: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app


    A couple of notes:

    • Make sure that Zen Browser is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder.
    • Zen Browser is not an officially supported browser and you might run into unexpected issues. If you see those same issues with a supported browser like Firefox then let us know by starting a new discussion and we can investigate.

Thanks for the reply. Since Zen Browser isn't a supported browser, integration between the desktop app and the browser extension won't work. You might be able to use 1Password in the browser with Zen Browser (although you might run into issues since the team hasn't tested 1Password in that browser) but you'll need to unlock the extension separately from the desktop app using your account password.

There are many different browsers that users have requested support for and custom trusted browsers allow everyone the use of their favourite browser with 1Password, even if they're not supported. The custom trusted browsers feature has been a hit on the Mac and I've let the product team know that you'd like to see it be introduced for Windows as well. Thank you for the feedback!
