Deactivating Facebook Messenger can be a simple process if you follow the right steps. Firstly, open the Messenger app on your mobile device. Look for the settings icon, usually represented by three horizontal lines, and tap on it to access the menu.
Once you have accessed the menu, scroll down until you see “See more” in the Accounts Center section. Tap on it and then select “Personal details” to continue the deactivation process.
Within the Personal details section, you will find the option for “Account ownership and control.” Tap on this option to proceed with deactivating your Messenger account.
Under the Account ownership and control section, you will see the choice between “Deactivation” or “Deletion.” Since you want to deactivate your Messenger account, select the Deactivation option.
After selecting Deactivation, you will be prompted to choose the Messenger account you wish to deactivate. Select the appropriate account from the list provided.
Once you have chosen the Messenger account to deactivate, you will be required to enter your password for security purposes. Enter your password in the designated field and tap on Continue to confirm the deactivation process.
It is essential to ensure you enter the correct password to successfully deactivate the Messenger account. Double-check the password entry before tapping on Continue to prevent any issues during the deactivation process.
After confirming the password and tapping on Continue, Facebook will proceed with deactivating your Messenger account. You will receive a confirmation message indicating that the deactivation process was successful.
Keep in mind that deactivating your Messenger account is reversible, meaning you can reactivate it at any time by logging back in with your credentials. Your chats and account information will be preserved when you reactivate the account.
If you decide to reactivate your Messenger account, simply log in using your email and password, and your account will be restored with all your previous conversations intact.
By following these steps carefully, you can easily deactivate your Facebook Messenger account when needed. Remember to keep your login details secure to prevent unauthorized access to your account.
