How to delete a channel on youtube

Very often, active users of the well-known YouTube video hosting create one or more channels. But personal content is a capricious thing and requires constant replenishment with new videos. And then the user realizes that he does not have enough personal time to create updates, and makes a bold decision - to say goodbye to his channel forever. We will show you how to make your dream come true!

The method involves deleting the channel along with the complete loss of personal content, videos, subscribers and comments. So, let's begin. To get started, go to https://www.youtube.com. In the upper right corner, click on your account, indicated by a blue circle. Select YouTube settings from the dropdown list. As a rule, the button is depicted as a gear. The system will automatically take you to the general information section. Under the line of your name, select the "Advanced" section.

In the window that appears, click the "Delete channel" button.

Next, the system offers you two options for further action:

• You can hide the channel, leaving for yourself the ability to watch videos, like, subscribe. But you will not be able to upload new videos and, accordingly, no one will be able to see your videos. The system also allows you to turn on the channel again if you want to use it again.
• The second option is to delete the data completely. If you select "Remove content", you will not be able to perform absolutely no action on your channel. The only thing is that the system keeps your Google+ pages and the created Google account intact, you only delete the Youtube channel.

If you finally decide to remove the content completely, check all the boxes, then click "Delete Content".

The system will warn you again that all information will be deleted with the channel, including comments, messages, uploaded videos and history. If you fully agree, confirm the action by entering your email address. And again click the "Delete Content" button.

That's it, the channel has been deleted! But the complete deletion of data will not happen immediately, this procedure will take about 10-14 days. During this time, your videos will still appear in the search. After waiting a bit, very soon your channel will be completely erased from YouTube.
