Adding a family member

I just purchased the family membership for Windows and installed myself as a user. So far, so good.



I understand there is only one registration key that the family is supposed to share, but just how does one create a new "profile" on the same computer. When I re-download the software, and re-enter the key, there is no prompt to enter a new password. Please advise. Thanks!

    Welcome to the forums, rscheetz! Thanks for purchasing a family license. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />



    You'll need to set up a new Windows user. The exact technique varies depending on which version of Windows you are using, but here are some instructions:[list]

    [*][url="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/279783"]Windows XP[/url]

    [*][url="http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/create-new-user-account-in-windows-vista-7/"]Windows Vista and 7[/url]

    [*][url="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/create-user-account"]Windows 8[/url]

    [/list]

    Then each user will have their own user data for not just 1Password but all programs. It's (almost) like gaining a second computer. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />



    I hope that helps. Please let me know.
