I purchased a password a few years ago and now my account is frozen I have the password Emergency Kit but no matter what I do it is to no avail. I am guessing that I need some detailed instructions to remove the frozen aspect.

    We need a bit more information to be able to answer. reliably

    But as you bought 1PW a few years ago and have the Emergency kit, what is quite likely is that you have a licence (for version 6, licenced versions of 1PW7 require a chargeable new licence), started an account (the word "account" is used by AgileBits to refer to the subscription, and Emergency Kits only exist with the sub), but never paid for a sub, in which case you account would get frozen.

    If I am right, the solutions are to return to the licence (sign out of your subscription account and use the Primary vaut) or to subscribe.

    Note that a frozen account is still available read-only, so it might help if you can say if you have passwords in a Primary account, a Personal account, or where.

    I am so messed up that I have removed everything 1 Password from my computer. I would like start over and stay with license version guessing that is Password 4. So what I would like is a link to down load 1 Password and use my license. I can start my vault from scratch I have no problem with that.

    Just a heads-up that the upgrades from 1PW4 to 1PW5 and 1PW5 to 1PW6 were free (though the upgrade to 1PW7 is a paid one).

    So you should be able to use 1PW6 which can be downloaded from an "Older versions" section towards the bottom of the main Downloads page. I would not recommend this as a long-term solution, but it is certainly acceptable in the short term.

    @Darwin Thomas - just following up here: do you still need assistance?
