Answered by Michael Wilson

Deleting an Instagram account without logging in can be a bit tricky, but it is still possible. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Access the Instagram website: Open a web browser on your computer or mobile device and go to the Instagram website (www.instagram.com).

2. Navigate to the login page: On the Instagram homepage, you will see the login fields. Since you don’t have access to your account, you need to click on the “Forgot password?” link below the login button.

3. Enter your username or email: On the password reset page, you will be prompted to enter either your Instagram username or the email associated with your account. Provide the information and click on the “Reset Password” button.

4. Check your email: Instagram will send a password reset link to the email address associated with your account. Go to your email inbox and look for the email from Instagram. If you can’t find it in your inbox, check your spam or junk folder.

5. Click on the password reset link: Open the email from Instagram and click on the password reset link provided. This link will redirect you to the password reset page on the Instagram website.

6. Reset your password: On the password reset page, you will be asked to enter a new password for your Instagram account. Choose a strong and unique password that you haven’t used before. Once you’ve entered the new password, click on the “Reset Password” button.

7. Log in to your account: After resetting your password, you will be redirected to the Instagram login page. Use your newly set password to log in to your account.

8. Access the account deletion page: Once you’re logged in, go to the account deletion page by clicking on the following link: https://www.instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent/

9. Specify the reason for deletion: Instagram will ask you to select a reason for deleting your account from the provided options. Choose the most appropriate reason for you.

10. Delete your account: you can permanently delete your Instagram account by clicking on the “Delete Account” button. Instagram will ask for confirmation, so make sure you are certain before proceeding.

It’s important to note that once you delete your Instagram account, all your photos, videos, followers, and other data will be permanently removed. You won’t be able to reactivate the account or retrieve any of the deleted content.

I hope this guide helps you delete your Instagram account without logging in. Please remember to consider if deleting your account is the best option for you before proceeding.
