How To Delete or Hide Your YouTube Channel

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

Note that hiding or deleting a YouTube channel will permanently delete all Community posts, comments, and replies.

How To Hide your channel temporarily

You can hide content from your YouTube channel and choose to re-enable it later. Hiding your channel will make channel name, videos, likes, subscriptions, and subscribers private.

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