Are you using accented characters (character outside the 0x21-0x7f range) in the master password?

Can you login to the Software Security Device via the Device manager ?

I'm constantly having this issue. I am 100% sure I am entering my my master password correctly, but the prompt to enter my master password will popup over and over and over and over and over again. I don't understand what's happening. It's supposed to be a helpful tool, but it's starting to cause some frustration.

I am having the same problem. Master Password works when signing in to the website and also on my phone but is not being recognized on my browser.
