## **Step 6: Install Complete - but we're not done!**

1Password should now work for autofilling login information.

* * *

## **Step 7: Configure**

In the Firefox browser, click on the 1Password icon next to the address bar and then click on the "menu" icon (circled in red below), then `Settings...` as shown:

There are two tabs you will need to change settings in:
* **Autofill & save**
* **Accounts & vaults**

##### **Autofill & save**
Click on the **Autofill & save** tab, and then disable "**Offer to save and sign in with passkeys**" because we currently do not use passkeys.

Make sure the vault selected next to "**New items get saved in:**" is set to **your _named vault_** e.g. `John Doe`. It should not be set to "Employee" or "Private" or anything else.

##### **Accounts & vaults**

Click on the Accounts & Vaults tab on the left. Uncheck Employee:

> 📌
>
> As of May 1, 2024 the name of the "Private" vault has been changed to "Employee" for 1Password business accounts. This change was not made by us but [by the developers](https://blog.1password.com/employee-vault/) of 1Password. Please continue to leave the Employee vault empty.

## **Step 8: Proceed to Section 5**

You're done!... at least with this part. Please proceed to **Section 5** to install 1Password on your phone or other mobile device. Note that **Section 4** is optional. If you have any questions, contact IT for help.
