Prevent Your Facebook Account From Being Reactivated

Even after you go ahead and Permanently delete your Facebook Account, it takes a long time for Facebook to permanently delete your data from its servers. During this period, your Facebook account can get accidentally reactivated in case your Facebook account is linked to other social media accounts and you login to these accounts. Hence, you need to take the following steps to prevent your Facebook Account from being reactivated.

1. Logout of Facebook on all Devices

Before going ahead with the steps to Permanently Delete Your Facebook account, you need to make sure that you are logged out of Facebook on all your devices (Laptop, Desktop, Tablet and Phone). There are good chances of your Facebook account being reactivated, in case you are not logged out of Facebook on any of your devices and happen to accidentally open Facebook on any of these devices.

In case you have linked your Facebook account to other social media networks like Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram and others, make sure that you unlink your Facebook account from all your other Social Media Accounts and Apps. You need to do this because Facebook will automatically reactivate your account, in case you happen to sign-in to any of your other Social Media Accounts that are linked to Facebook within 14 days of deleting your Facebook Account. Follow the steps below to unlink Facebook from your other Social media Accounts.

  1. Using PC or Mac, Login to your Facebook Account.

  2. Click on the down-arrow menu icon located at the top-right of your screen and then click on Settings.
