Delete All Messages In Facebook

Over the past month two of my Facebook buddies have actually had their accounts hacked (that I understand of). In both of these instances the cyberpunk picked to go through the individual's Facebook emails to read every one of their messages and after that make use of that info to message their close friends-- impersonating them. I was among those individuals that each hacker messaged. It was a serious experience to realize that someone can potentially have access to every one of your individual conversations that you have actually had with family and friends, returning for several years!

After this experience I decided that I wished to erase every one of my previous Facebook messages so that if I was ever hacked, at the very least I can limit what they would have access to. Yet I discovered that this wasn't as simple as you would believe as there is no global "Delete All" option for Facebook messages and also discussions. Rather, you need to click right into each discussion, click on the "Actions" button, and pick "Erase Discussion". To do this for the numerous conversations that I've carried Facebook over the past a number of years would have been far also time-consuming. Nevertheless, I did locate an impressive plug-in for the Chrome browser called Facebook-- Erase All Messages that sufficed.

The procedure is basic. Open up your Chrome internet browser and navigate to the plugin. Click "Contribute To Chrome" in order to download/install the plugin. It currently has more than 82,000 users as well as I found it to be virus/bug-free since two weeks back, so I can highly recommend it.

Once it's mounted, simply sign into Facebook. Open the full messages home window and also click on the plugin icon that rests on the far right of the address bar.

Then click "Launch". It will remove all the messages on that particular whole web page. If you have a great deal of old messages you may require to scroll down and also click Release a few times till they're all gone.

However within a couple of mins you need to be eliminate all your old discussions, and they will certainly not reappear when the person messages you again. You'll have a clean slate!
