I switched from LastPass to 1Password a few weeks ago and I cannot get 1Password to prompt to save passwords for me on my Chrome browser on my Windows PC or Windows laptop. I have already: Updated Chrome. Updated 1Password. Restarted my computer. Confirmed that Autofill - offer to fill and save passwords is green. 1Password also has a Chrome OS app that lets 1Password live in your browser, and offers keyboard shortcuts for fast-searching your logins across all of its desktop options.

If 1Password isn’t saving or filling passwords on any website or you don’t see the 1Password icon in form fields
If you don’t see the 1Password icon in form fields when you visit websites, make sure it’s turned on. Follow the steps for your browser:
Safari
- Open and unlock 1Password.
- Choose 1Password > Preferences.
- Click the Browsers icon, then turn on:
- “Always keep 1Password Extension Helper running”
- “Show inline menu in Safari”
- “Detect new usernames and passwords and offer to save them”
Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave
- Click in your browser’s toolbar.
- Click and choose Settings.
- Turn on “Offer to fill and save passwords”.
If you’re using Safari and still don’t see the 1Password icon in form fields, Control- or right-click the web page and choose “Show 1Password on this page”.
If you’re having trouble saving and filling logins on a specific website
If 1Password is working well on other sites, but you’re having trouble saving and filling passwords on a specific website, follow these steps:
- Check for multiple Login items. If you have more than one Login item for a single website, and some of them have the same password, you won’t be prompted to save the password again. You can still save it manually.
- Save the Login manually. When you save a new Login manually, 1Password will record the form fields on the page even if it doesn’t automatically detect them.

If you used the password generator to create your new password, you can recover it in the Generator History. Learn how to recover an unsaved password.

If 1Password doesn’t automatically fill your information when you visit a website
To protect you, 1Password will only fill when you tell it to.
If you’re on the sign-in page for a website, click the 1Password icon in your browser’s toolbar, and select the Login item for that site to fill your username and password.
If you want 1Password to open the website and fill your password, click the 1Password icon in your browser’s toolbar, start typing to find the site you want to sign in to, then click Go.
