FAQs

Commonly asked questions about this topic.

How do I delete a single ChatGPT conversation?

You can delete a single ChatGPT conversation by hovering over the conversation in your chat list, clicking the More icon, selecting "Delete," and confirming your choice. This removes only the selected conversation from your history.

Is it possible to delete all conversations at once?

Currently, ChatGPT does not offer a built-in feature to bulk delete all conversations at once. You need to delete conversations individually as the options only support per-conversation deletion.

Will deleting a conversation delete it from OpenAI’s servers immediately?

Deleting a conversation removes it from your account’s visible history, but it may still be retained on OpenAI’s servers for a period as stated in their privacy policy. Check OpenAI’s data retention terms for more details.

Can I recover a deleted ChatGPT conversation?

Once a conversation is deleted, it cannot be recovered through the ChatGPT interface. Make sure you export or save important chats before deleting them.

How do I access the “More” icon to delete a chat?

The More icon appears as three dots or a similar menu icon when you hover over a specific conversation in the sidebar. Clicking it will show options including "Delete."

Are deleted conversations removed from all my devices?

Yes, deleting a conversation removes it from your ChatGPT account, so it no longer appears on any device where you access ChatGPT with that account.

Why can’t I find the delete option for some conversations?
