How to delete your Adobe account

You can delete your account only if you don’t have an active subscription. Or, if you're a teams or enterprise user,  you need to leave any organizations you are a part of before you can delete your account. When you delete your account, you lose access to Adobe apps and services, including any files in the cloud. Deleting your account is permanent, and data loss is irretrievable.

  1. Make a local copy or backup of your files, photos, videos, Adobe Stock images, and other projects that are stored with Adobe.

  2. Note: If you use your Adobe app on Apple iOS (iPhone or iPad), you can delete your Adobe account directly from your mobile app. Tap on your profile icon (or open your app's settings), and then select Account > Delete Adobe account.
