# Deactivate your account
|
|
|
|
We'd be sorry to see you go, but you can follow the following steps to deactivate your Zulip account.
|
|
|
|
1. Click the cog () in the upper right corner of the right sidebar.
|
|
|
|
2. Select **Settings** from the dropdown menu that appears.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Upon clicking **Settings**, your view will be replaced with the **Settings** page. Click the red **Deactivate your account** button on the bottom of the **Your account** section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. After clicking the **Deactivate Account** button, a modal window titled **Deactivate Your Account** will appear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. To confirm the deletion of your account, click the red **Deactivate now** button. Please note that any bots that you maintain will be disabled.
|
|
|
|
6. After clicking the **Deactivate now** button, you will be logged out and returned to the Zulip login page.
|
|
|
|
Please note that you cannot register a Zulip account using the email address of a deactivated account.
|
|
|
|
In addition, if you're the only administrator in the realm, you cannot deactivate your account; you need to make another user an administrator first before you can deactivate your account.

If you regret deactivating your account, you can ask a Zulip realm administrator to [reactivate](/help/deactivate-or-reactivate-a-user#reactivate-a-user) your account.
