How to remove an account from your MetaMask

This guide shows you how to hide or remove an account from your MetaMask wallet.

  • Hide: Any account you've added to MetaMask can easily be hidden from your account selector menu, allowing you to view the accounts that are most important to you more easily.

  • Remove: Depending on the account type (usually some imported accounts and hardware wallets), you may also be able to remove accounts from your MetaMask instance altogether. TL;DR: You can only remove accounts if you see the 'Remove account' option in the account selector menu. Otherwise, you can only hide them.

Hide an account

Hiding an account is easy; click on the three vertical dots menu to the right of your account, and click 'Hide account'.

Remove an account

:::info[How 如何移除创建的账户?

It is not possible to remove created accounts (additional accounts derived from your SRP), as your address remains permanently on the blockchain. You can "hide" any accounts you don't wish to see anymore by following the steps above.

You can only remove imported accounts and external accounts that you imported with a private key or JSON file (such as a hardware wallet) if on an SRP-only wallet; if you created your wallet using a Google/Apple account, you can only hide accounts, not remove them as they will be forever linked to your Google/Apple account.

您在 MetaMask 中使用“添加账户”按钮添加的账户无法删除。 See below for more information, or consider hiding them for a potential workaround.

通过点击屏幕顶部的账户选择器导航到您的账户。 您将在此处看到所导入的任何账户,因为应已对其进行标记。
