How To Delete Facebook Account?
If you've decided that you no longer want a Facebook account, you can follow these steps to delete it:
1. Log in to your Facebook account and click the arrow icon in the top
right corner of the page.
2.
From the dropdown menu, click on "Settings & Privacy" and then
select "Settings."
3.
On the left-hand side of the page, click on "Your Facebook
Information."
4.
From the options under "Your Facebook Information," click on
"Deactivation and Deletion."
5.
Under "Deactivate Account," click on the "Deactivate" button.
6.
In the pop-up window, select the reason you want to deactivate your
account and click "Continue to Account Deactivation."
7.
Review the information on the next page and click "Deactivate" to
confirm.
After you deactivate your account, your profile and all of your
information will be hidden from other users on Facebook. However, it's
important to note that Facebook will retain some of your data in case you
decide to reactivate your account in the future.
If you want to completely delete your account and all of your data, you
can follow these additional steps:
1.
After deactivating your account, click on the "Delete Account"
button.
2.
In the pop-up window, click "Delete Account" to confirm.
3.
Enter your password and click "Continue."
4.
Click "Delete Account" to confirm that you want to permanently delete
your account and all of your data.
5.
Back up your data: Before deleting your account, you may want to
consider downloading a copy of your data for your own records. To do
this, go to "Your Facebook Information" and click on "Download Your
Information." From there, you can select which data you want to include
in the download and choose a format for the file.
6.
Disconnect your account from other apps: If you've connected your
Facebook account to other apps or websites, you'll need to disconnect it
before deleting your account. To do this, go to "Apps and Websites"
under "Settings & Privacy" and click on "Edit" next to each app or
website to remove the connection.
7.
Remove any payment information: If you've added payment information to
your Facebook account, you'll need to remove it before deleting your
account. To do this, go to "Payment Settings" under "Settings &
Privacy" and click on "Edit" next to each payment method to remove
it.
8.
Consider deactivating your account instead: If you're not sure if you
want to permanently delete your account, you can deactivate it instead.
This will hide your profile and all of your information from other users
on Facebook, but your data will be retained in case you decide to
reactivate your account in the future.
9.
Think about the consequences: Before deleting your account, it's
important to consider the potential consequences. For example, you may
lose access to certain apps or websites that you've connected to your
Facebook account, or you may lose contact with friends or groups that
you've connected with on the platform.
10.
By considering these points, you can make an informed decision about
whether deleting your Facebook account is the right choice for you.
It's important to note that once you delete your account, it cannot be
recovered. Make sure you really want to delete your account before you
take this step.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, you
