If you have decided to delete your Google Drive account, then this step-by-step article will be really helpful for you.
Before deleting your Google Drive account, you must be aware that you first need to cancel your Google account in order to delete your Google Drive account. All other Google-owned services linked to your Google account will be deleted due to this.
So therefore I would suggest to you that you save or backup any data or information that is associated with your Google account before proceeding with the deletion of your Google Drive account.
Let’s start.
How to Delete Your Google Drive Account
Here are the steps:
Step 1: Go to drive.google.com using your favorite browser and then log in using your Google account credentials.
Step 2: Now you need to click on your profile image/icon in the top-right corner of the screen. A drop-down menu will appear and then you have to click on “Manage your Google Account“.
Step 3: After clicking on “Manage your Google Account” you will be taken to the “My Account” page. Here you have to click on the “Privacy & personalization” box.
Step 4: Now you need to click on “Delete a service or your account“.
Step 5: Another screen will appear where you need to click on “Delete your account“. You will be prompted to enter your Google account password.
Step 6: Once you enter your password, you will see another screen pop-up regarding account deletion. You will be notified by Google on this page that you will lose your data forever. It will also notify you that any pending financial transactions between you and Google are still your responsibility.
So if you’re certain that you want to delete your Google account, then you need to scroll down to the bottom of this page and tickmark the two checkboxes, and then click “DELETE ACCOUNT“.
So that’s it. This is how you can delete your Google Drive account. As already explained, you cannot delete your Google Drive account without deleting your Google account, so be sure that you want to move ahead!
