1Password for windows - Chrome 'Profile' is unselectable since it's in a hidden folder

flav-o-dave

1Password for Chrome isn't working, and when I go into prefs to correct the problem, the "Profile" button is not helpful since it is a different format than the "Browse..." button.

Browse opens a file explorer with a path bar at the top so I can manually edit (but don't need to).

Profile opens a file explorer with no path bar at the top (just an expandable folder tree) - which is useless for hidden folders, which Users/<user>/AppData... is.



Is there a way around this?

I hope you'll see [i]C:\Users\[/i]your-name[i]\AppData\[/i]... as shown in this screenshot:
