I've noticed after updating to 1Password 7.0.BETA-8 that suddenly I have two 1Password Mini icons in the menu bar. Opening 1Password 6 and disabling the 1Password Mini for v6 disables it for v7 as well.

Firstly is this expected behaviour?
Secondly should I have both 1PW6 and 1PW7beta installed next to each other? If not, what is the recommended way of removing 1PW6?

1Password Version: 7.0.BETA-8
Extension Version: 4.7.1.3
OS Version: OS X 10.13.4
Sync Type: Dropbox

    Hi @CraigN,

    The 1Password 7 beta installer should be removing 1Password 6. Could you please try re-running it and see if that happens now? You can download the installer here:

    I have the 1Password 7 beta as well, @CraigN , and I had the same experience. I believe you can run this way indefinitely, but I uninstalled v6. You can always reinstall later if you want to drop the beta, particularly if you are syncing everything. I guess I'd be extra careful if you have any local vaults.

    To uninstall, simply move 1Password logo1Password 6.app from the Applications folder to the Trash after quitting completely. There's a support article with instructions here, but of course you should stop after the very first bit, since you probably don't want to be getting rid of any 1Password data.

    Hope this helps,

    Adam

    Hi @Ben,

    I re-installed 1Password 7 beta 8 as you suggested and 1Password 6 is still installed under Applications. What exactly do you mean it should remove 1Password 6? It did seem to stop the 1Password 6 Mini from appearing though.

    Thanks @AdamP for the link. I'll monitor it and report back if I need to follow the manual uninstall instructions.

    The installer is supposed to zip up 1Password 6 so that it can’t be run without being unzipped. I’ll follow up with development and see if this is still the intention or not. Thanks.

    Sorry, I didn't realize @Ben was already on the case while I was posting my response.

    What is interesting is that there is a zip file created on the 10th April 2018 but its not "1Password 6.app.zip", rather "1Password 7.app.zip".

    It may just be taking the first 1Password app it finds... I’ll follow up with development and see what the deal is. :)

    Installed 7.0B9 on two systems the other day. Both left 1Password 6 installed in the Applications directory and with launch tasks enabled. There is no zip file of the older version, so something isn't right. ;)

    Thanks. I’m waiting to hear back from development about what the desired state is here... I know we had some back and fourth on it internally.
