Delete or hide your YouTube channel

There are two versions of the YouTube desktop experience, the current version and the new version. Follow the instructions for the experience you have.

You can choose to temporarily hide content on your channel or permanently delete your channel.

All your comments and replies will be permanently deleted. Your account data on other Google properties will not be removed.

  5. Select the boxes to confirm what will be hidden on your channel.
