Export has duplicate entries

[jwylie]

I just did an export of my LastPass data and the CSV shows duplicate entries for every account. E.g. my Amazon account is listed four times. Same password, same username, same login URL. When I search my vault, there is only one Amazon entry for my username. This happens with all the accounts in my export. Everything has at least one duplicate. Why is this? Can I change a setting in LastPass to get a clean export?

I can confirm this with Firefox.

The first export after I launch Firefox and log in is OK. The 2nd export within the same session (without closing Firefox) had every entry twice. The 3rd export had every entry 3 times. Without closing Firefox, I logged out of LastPass then logged in and exported again. The export had every entry 4 times.

I logged out of LastPass, closed then reopened Firefox and logged into LastPass. The next export was OK.

Perfect. Thanks so much.

@jwylieYou're welcome

@GlennD If you haven't already, could you report this bug to the developers? It also happens when you export an encrypted file twice in the same Firefox session. (The exported file can't be viewed directly because it is encrypted, but the file doubles in size on the second export)
