Facebook: Deactivate Account - Time Out from Social Media

Facebook has been popular as a social network since 2004. If you too have an account there but are not currently using Facebook, why not give yourself a break? If you want to keep the option open to become active again at any time, simply deactivate your account.

How to deactivate your Facebook account

To deactivate your account only temporarily, you just need to invest a little time. This will allow you to become active again at any time.

1. First, open the Facebook login page and enter your credentials. Subsequently, click on your profile to get to your own page.
2. In the upper right corner, you will find a downward pointing arrowhead that you need to select. Now select "Setting" from the drop-down menu that appears.
3. Set it to show you the general account settings. Now you will be shown the "Disable your account" option. Select it.
4. You will be taken to the shortcut with the same name. Enter your Facebook password in the field provided.
5. Now still decide whether you want to continue to receive emails from Facebook and your applications should remain deposited. Subsequently, your account is deactivated.

You want to use Facebook again?

The activation of your profile can also be done within a few minutes. For this, you just need to follow the same path as for deactivation and confirm that you want to actively use your account again. The important thing is that you know your password.
