What is how to permanently delete instagram?
Okay, here's information on how to permanently delete your Instagram account in markdown format, with linked keywords as requested:
Deleting your Instagram account is permanent. This means your profile, photos, videos, comments, likes, and followers will be removed permanently and cannot be recovered. It can take up to 90 days to complete the deletion process.
Important Considerations Before Deleting:
- Back Up Your Data: Before you delete, you should download a copy of your Instagram data, including your photos, videos, messages, and profile information. Instagram provides a tool to do this.
- Irreversible Action: Understand that deleting your account is a permanent decision. There is no going back. You cannot reactivate the account or retrieve any of your data after the deletion is complete.
- Deactivation vs. Deletion: Be sure you truly want to delete and not just deactivate your account. Deactivating your account temporarily disables it, making it invisible to other users. You can reactivate it at any time by simply logging back in. Deletion is final.
How to Permanently Delete Your Account:
You cannot delete your Instagram account from within the Instagram app on your mobile device. You must use a web browser (on your computer or mobile).
- Go to the Delete Account Page: Open a web browser and go to Instagram's Delete Account Page. You must be logged in to access this page.
- Select a Reason: Instagram will ask why you are deleting your account. Select a reason from the drop-down menu. This is a required step.
- Re-enter Your Password: You will need to re-enter your password to confirm the deletion.
- Confirm Deletion: Click the "Permanently delete my account" button.
- Account is Scheduled for Deletion: Your account will then be scheduled for permanent deletion. As mentioned, it can take up to 90 days for the deletion process to be completed. During this time, your account will be hidden from other users.
What Happens After You Delete:
- Your profile, photos, videos, comments, likes, and followers will be permanently deleted.
- You will not be able to sign up again using the same username.
- Copies of your data may remain in Instagram's backup storage for a period of time after the deletion process is complete.
Troubleshooting:
- Forgotten Password: If you've forgotten your password, use the "Forgot password?" link on the login page to reset it.
- Account Still Visible: It may take some time for your account to be completely removed from Instagram's servers and caches. If your account is still visible after a few days, contact Instagram support.
