When I deleted Chrome History, my 1Passwords also dissapeared.

Chrome was interfering with my autofill with 1Password, often both trying to fill different password. To stop the interference, I deleted my advanced Chrome history including the auto fill passwords.
I've lost access to Facebook for example, as 1Password also had the two-factor authentication. I've looked in the deleted items, and the passwords newly created in Chrome have all deleted.

1Password Version: 8.10.6
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Windows 11
Browser:_ Chrome

    Hello @spike787! 👋

    I'm sorry that you're having trouble finding your passwords. Clearing Chrome's browsing history will not affect the items that you have saved in 1Password. However, if you selected "Passwords and passkeys" when clearing Chrome's browsing history that will erase any items that you're storing in the built-in password manager in Chrome. The built-in manager in Chrome works separately from 1Password.

    Can you tell me if you see all of your items (including your login credentials for Facebook) when you log in to your 1Password account on 1Password.com (in the browser, not the app)?
