0:02
Hey guys, welcome to this new video. In today's video, I want to show you if it's possible to delete our MetaMask account
0:12
Now, just in case that you've maybe opened your MetaMask account in another desktop, in another phone
0:21
and you are not able to delete your account or to sign out so nobody enters your MetaMask
0:27
Well, unfortunately, we're not able to delete our MetaMask account per se
0:32
So there are two ways that we can be creating a new wallet
0:36
If you want to create a new wallet, if that's the only case, what we want to do is to go into the MetaMask
0:42
select this icon right here, and select create account. So you can put a new account name here, create one, and we have a new wallet right here
0:54
But if you are done with MetaMask, what you can do is to delete the extension or the application if you have it on your phone
1:01
So I want to remove it from Chrome. I'm going to select remove and it's no longer in here
1:07
So if I go back into my tabs and I go and select MetaMask, I'm going to be downloaded again
1:14
So, because you can see guys what happens if I want to open MetaMask again
1:19
So I'm going to add this real quick. So it says MetaMask has been added to Chrome
1:25
So it's going to be open a new tab where it says welcome to MetaMask. So as you can see, MetaMask resets itself. It says we're happy to see you. Let's start it
1:35
So this is the way that we can create a new wallet. So and having a new secret recovery phrase or if you want to delete the MetaMask because it just won't work and you want to import your wallet again
1:47
that's a way that we can do that as well. So I'm going to select the import wallet
1:51
I'm going to select I agree and I can paste my secret recovery phrase into this field
1:58
And lastly, what I want to do is to select a new password. So the next time I enter MetaMask, I just need to input this password and that will be much easier to sign in
2:07
So if I select import, it says congratulations, you pass the test. All done
2:13
And as you can see, my wallet, it's in here with no problem
2:18
Just in case you have a situation where your MetaMask might be used by another person or you have been hacked or something like that
2:25
I strongly recommend that you contact the MetaMask support so they can help you guys to see what you can do in order to restore your wallet or maybe create a new secret recovery phrase
2:38
So it depends on the situation that you are into. So there you have it guys. It wasn't that hard. Thank you for watching the video
