Option 1: Deactivate your Roblox account

If you need a break from Roblox, deactivating your account is the best option. It will hide your profile, take you off the friends list, and pause your activity without permanently deleting any of your data. You can log back in whenever you like, and everything will still be there. Friends might notice the message “Account Deleted” next to your name. That’s just Roblox’s default label for accounts that have been turned off rather than removed.

How to deactivate your account:

Sign in to your Roblox account.
Click the gear icon and open Settings.
Go to the Privacy tab.
Scroll down to Account Deactivation and Deletion.
Select Deactivate, then confirm it.

Option 2: Permanently delete your Roblox account

If you’re certain you’re done with Roblox for good, you can ask the company to delete your account entirely. There’s no “delete” button in the settings, so instead, you’ll need to make a formal request through Roblox Support under what’s known as your Right to Be Forgotten. To send your deletion request:

Visit the Roblox Support page.
Fill in your username, email address, and a short message explaining that you’d like your account permanently deleted.
Under Help Category, select Data Privacy Requests, then choose Right to Be Forgotten.
Submit the form and wait for Roblox to email you with the next steps.

Before Roblox processes the deletion, Roblox might ask you to confirm your identity. In some cases, you’ll be directed to a secure page where you upload a valid ID or take a quick verification photo. This is just to make sure no one else is trying to close your account without permission.Once you’ve verified everything, Roblox will start removing your personal data and account details. However, it isn't an instant process; it may take a few days to remove your data, but once it’s done, the deletion is permanent. You’ll lose access to your Robux, inventory, and any games or progress linked to that account. There’s no way to reverse it later, so make sure you’re absolutely sure before confirming.

How to Cancel Roblox Premium

If you’ve got Roblox Premium, stop the subscription before deleting your account; otherwise, you’ll keep paying for something you can’t use. On desktop:

Log in to your Roblox account.
Hit the gear icon and choose Settings → Subscriptions.
Click your Premium membership.
Select Cancel Renewal, then follow the steps on screen.

On mobile:Open your App Store or Google Play subscriptions. Roblox can’t cancel mobile payments for you, so you’ll need to end the subscription through your phone’s settings instead.You’ll keep Premium perks until your current billing cycle runs out, but Roblox won’t refund previous payments. If you can’t log in, reach out to Roblox Support with your billing email and payment details so they can find your account and cancel it for you.

What happens after deleting your Roblox account

Once Roblox confirms your deletion request, that’s it, your account’s gone. You won’t be able to log in again or recover your Robux, games, or inventory.A few things might still exist on the platform, like trades or shared items, but those stay because they’re tied to other users’ accounts. That’s normal.If you’re deleting a child’s profile, remind them first because their avatars, creations, and progress will all disappear for good.

Troubleshooting issues

Didn’t get a confirmation email?Check your spam folder, and make sure you used the same email linked to your Roblox account. Verification link expired?Ask Roblox Support to resend it and finish the process as soon as you can. The link usually times out after a day. Changed your mind?If deletion hasn’t been processed yet, you can still stop it by contacting Support right away. Once it’s gone through, there’s no way back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I delete my Roblox account from the app?

No, Roblox doesn’t offer a delete option inside the app or account settings. You’ll need to fill in the online support form on the Roblox website and request deletion that way.

How long does it take for Roblox to delete an account?

Once your identity is verified and the request is confirmed, Roblox usually completes the process within a few business days. In some cases, it can take up to two weeks, depending on how many requests they’re handling.

Does Roblox really delete all my data?

Yes, once your deletion request goes through, Roblox wipes your personal details and account data. They might hang on to a few records, like payment history, for a short while to meet legal or tax requirements, but nothing that can identify you after that.

Can I keep my Robux or purchases before deleting my account?

No, once your account’s gone, everything linked to it goes to your Robux, games, and any items you’ve bought. If you’ve still got credit left, spend it or end your subscriptions before you send the deletion request.
