You can delete a Roblox account through the account settings page, but the process is permanent and cannot be undone
To delete your Roblox account, you log in, go to your account settings, find the delete account option, and confirm your choice. Roblox will ask you to re-enter your password to make sure the request is real. Once you confirm, your account, all your games, items, and Robux (the in-game currency) are gone forever — Roblox does not restore deleted accounts.
The deletion takes effect when ready, though it may take a few days for your username to become available again for someone else to use. If you have spent money on Robux or in-game purchases, those are not refunded when you delete the account.
Key Takeaways
- Account deletion is permanent and cannot be reversed, so make sure you want to delete before you confirm.
- You must enter your password when you request deletion, so you need to remember it or reset it first.
- Any Robux or items you own will be lost and cannot be recovered after deletion.
- The deletion takes effect right away, though the username may take a few days to become available again.
- If you want to stop playing but keep your account, you can change your password and log out instead.
How to find the delete account option
Log into your Roblox account on a computer or phone. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page — this opens your account menu. Look for "Settings" and click it.
Once you are in Settings, look for a tab or section called "Account" on the left side. Click it. Scroll down until you see an option that says "Delete Account" or "Delete Your Account". This is usually near the bottom of the page.
What happens when you click delete
When you click the delete button, Roblox will show you a warning that explains the deletion is permanent. Read this carefully. The page will ask you to type your password into a box to confirm you really want to delete the account.
Type your password exactly as it is. If you do not remember your password, click "Forgot Password?" before you start the deletion process, reset it, and then come back to delete the account. After you type your password and click the final confirm button, the deletion begins right away.
What you lose when you delete
Everything connected to that account is deleted. This includes all the games you created, all the items and cosmetics you bought or earned, all your friends, and all your Robux. If you spent real money on Robux, that money is not returned to you.
Your username becomes unavailable for a few days, then someone else can create a new account and use that same username. Your profile page will no longer exist, and anyone who tries to visit it will see an error.
If you want to stop playing without deleting
If you are not sure about permanent deletion, you have other options. You can change your password to something you do not remember, then log out. This locks you out of the account without deleting it. Later, if you change your mind, you can use the "Forgot Password?" option to get back in.
You can also straightforward stop logging in. Your account will stay there, and you can return to it anytime. Roblox does not delete inactive accounts.
Deleting on mobile versus computer
The steps are the same whether you use a phone or a computer, but the layout looks slightly different. On a phone, the gear icon is still in the top right, but you may need to scroll more to find all the settings options. The delete account button is in the same place in Settings under Account.
If you are on a phone and the delete option does not appear, try opening Roblox in a web browser instead of the app. The app sometimes does not show all settings options, but the website version always does.
What to do before you delete
Before you delete, think about whether you want to save anything. Take screenshots of games you created or items you are proud of, because these will be gone after deletion. If you have friends you want to stay in touch with, message them your contact information now, because they will not be able to message you after the account is deleted.
If you have spent money on the account, understand that this money is not coming back. Roblox does not issue refunds for Robux or purchases made with Robux when an account is deleted.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get my account back after I delete it?
No. Roblox does not restore deleted accounts under any circumstances. The deletion is permanent and final. If you think you might want to play again later, consider logging out and changing your password instead of deleting.
Will I get a refund for Robux I bought?
No. Roblox does not refund Robux or items purchased with Robux when you delete an account. Any money you spent is gone.
What if I forgot my password?
Click "Forgot Password?" on the login page and follow the steps to reset it. You will need access to the email address connected to your account. Once you reset your password, you can log back in and delete the account if you still want to.
How long does it take for my username to be available again?
It usually takes a few days. During that time, no one else can use that username. After a few days, the username becomes available and someone else can create a new account with it.
Can I delete someone else's account?
No. You can only delete an account you own and can log into. You need the password to confirm the deletion, so no one else can delete your account without your password.
