How to Remove Your YouTube Channel

YouTube doesn’t allow users to delete channels from a mobile phone. So, you will have to use a Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer to delete your channel.

When you’re ready, start by opening a web browser on your computer and accessing the YouTube Studio site. Then log in to your YouTube account.

On the YouTube Studio site, in the sidebar to the left, click “Settings.”

Click "Settings" on the YouTube Studio site.

On the “Settings” window, from the left sidebar, choose “Channel.”

Select "Channel" in the "Settings" window on the YouTube Studio site.

In the right pane of the “Settings” window, click “Advanced Settings.”

Click "Advanced Settings" in the "Settings" window on the YouTube Studio site.

Scroll the “Advanced Settings” tab all the way down. At the bottom, click “Remove YouTube Content.”

Select "Remove YouTube Content" in the "Settings" window on the YouTube Studio site.

YouTube will open a new tab in your web browser. In this new tab, if you’re asked to enter your YouTube account details, do so and continue.

Enter the YouTube login details.

You’re now on the “Remove YouTube Content” page. Here, select “I Want to Permanently Delete My Content.”

Select "I Want to Permanently Delete My Content" on the "Remove YouTube Content" page.

In the expanded menu, enable both checkboxes. Then, at the bottom of the menu, click “Delete My Content.”

Click "Delete My Content" on the "Remove YouTube Content" page.

On the “Delete Your Content” window that opens, type your email address in the text box and then click “Delete My Content.”

Warning: Make sure you’re okay with YouTube deleting all your data associated with your channel. You can’t restore your data once it’s deleted.

Enter the email address and select "Delete My Content" in the "Delete Your Content" window.

YouTube will proceed to delete your channel.

Message from YouTube stating your channel is being deleted.

And you’re all set. If you want to go all the way and delete your Google account, that’s possible as well.
