Unable to downgrade from Beta to Production

Hi esquared:

Because we may make changes to database specifics between builds that first start in nightly, make it to beta, then production. Changing the installed version could potentially result in data loss. In short, the release channel setting is controlling the channel for the next update installed newer than the current version. For example, switching from nightly to beta wouldn't install any more nightly releases, but would wait until the next beta release was available to install. Similarly, switching from beta to production won't happen until the next production release occurs.

I'm sorry, but why do I have to reset my 1Password data just to return to the Production channel? There is a setting directly in the preferences that allows me to pick between Production, Beta, and Nightlies. If that doesn't work as implied, then this is clearly a bug.

Hi @robd003:

Great question. While you can definitely stay on the production release channel and you'll receive the next production release when we release it (currently the latest production release for macOS is 8.7.1), if you'd like to change release channels now, you can follow the steps here to reset your 1Password data: How to reset the 1Password app on a specific device

After resetting the 1Password app, download the production app from here: https://1password.com/downloads/mac/

Let me know how you get on with that!

I set the Release Channel to Production 3+ months ago, but I'm still stuck getting new Beta releases.
