Clear account activity or reset account

This guide covers how to clear your account activity on MetaMask Extension and Mobile.

warning

You should only clear your account activity when strictly necessary, most often to resolve stuck and pending transactions. We do not recommend you reset your account unless one of our Support agents suggests you do so.

This function is intended primarily for developers, who may find it useful to clear an account's activity on a test network while continuing to use the same account.

Note that clearing account activity only affects the current network. For example: if you're on BNB Chain, the only activity that will be cleared are your transactions on BNB Chain. Transactions on other networks, such as Ethereum, will be unaffected.

Before commencing, we recommend you download your state logs. This will allow our Support agents to troubleshoot the root cause if necessary. Clearing your activity is irreversible, and not a common requirement for most users.

You will not lose value in your accounts.

To clear your account activity:

  1. Click the menu in the top-right corner.

MetaMask extension locate menu settings icon

  1. Go to 'Settings' > 'Developer tools'.
