I do not have MS Edge installed on my machine. I have never installed it. Yet there are folders with the above names being created immediately after I log in.

I delete the folders. Log in again, and they reappear.

Looking at the contents of the .json files, the reference 1Password.

Is there any reason that 1Password would be automatically installing the folders in the picture? ? I can see folders with these names being created in the "Library" folder immediately after I log in.

Here's the contents of one of the files (note that I do not use Chrome).

file path: ~/Library/Microsoft Edge/NativeMessagingHosts/

filename: com.1password.1password.json

file contents:

{

"name": "com.1password.1password",

"description": "1Password BrowserSupport",

"path": "/Applications/1Password.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/1Password Browser Helper.app/Contents/MacOS/1Password-BrowserSupport",

"type": "stdio",

"allowed_origins": [
