Do you have multiple YouTube channels and don’t use them anymore?
If you have channels that you don’t need, you may get in the way of management.
In fact, you can easily delete the channels you no longer use!
In this article, I will explain how to delete a YouTube channel and points to note before deleting it.
◆ What is YouTube channel deletion?
This means that you will leave your YouTube account ( the YouTube service of your Google account) and delete only certain channels that you own.
Therefore, only the content such as videos, comments, messages, playlists, history, etc. in the deleted channel will be permanently deleted.
◆ Precautions before deleting a YouTube channel
Before deleting a YouTube channel, let’s check the notes first.
Channel deletion permanently deletes uploaded videos, subscribers, channels you have subscribed to, comments, messages, playlists, browsing history, and other content.
Therefore, let’s think for yourself whether it is a situation where all of them can disappear.
If you delete it, you cannot restore the channel, so be careful.

If you tap “YouTube” normally, the YouTube application will open, so press and hold it to “Open in a new tab”.
Switch the display to the PC version

For the first time, it is often displayed in the mobile version. In that case, first tap the icon on the upper right.
Press and hold “PC version” and tap “Open in new tab”
Then it will switch to the PC version display
The PC version screen will open.
Tap ≡ on the upper left.
