Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Hi there,

Maybe this issue are the same cause with #6821 (comment)
FYI.

Hello everyone,

Earlier, I reported a similar issue through a Bitwarden Support email (Case #543010).

Up to this point, the same problem persists without resolution. Attached is the current situation along with my suggestion.

Operating System

Windows 11, Debian, more...?

Operating System Version

Windows 11 24H2, Debian 12.7, more...?

Web Browser

Google Chrome

Browser version

Chrome 130.0.6723.59

Build Version

Chrome extension 2024.10.0

The issue with the date not displaying occurs in the zh_Hant/Traditional Chinese interface. However, upon testing, the date displays correctly in the zh_Hans/Simplified Chinese interface.

I suggest copying the date display functionality from Simplified Chinese to Traditional Chinese for proper rendering.

It is still related to the Traditional Chinese interface. In the current version, login information with Passkey is unable to generate new passwords, resulting in an endless loading circle.

This issue has persisted for a long time and seems to be affecting normal functionality. I'm already considering switching to a competitor.

Build Version

Chrome extension 2024.10.1

For a long time, the browser client has had fundamental issues in the Traditional Chinese environment. Honestly, I would rather the official remove the broken Traditional Chinese support for the browser client. Using the English version client by default in the Traditional Chinese environment would probably provide a better user experience, since there is currently no way to change the browser client language other than changing the browser language settings.

To put it simply, if you are a Traditional Chinese user, it is more practical to consider other password management solutions first.
