Now, if you communicate a lot on Discord, you may want to delete your chat history. But that is not an easy task. The good news, we know how to get the job done, and it does not take much either, so strap up and let us get down to business.
Why delete your Discord messages?
There are multiple reasons to delete your direct messages on Discord, but the primary reason has everything to do with privacy. Maybe you said something that could be used to destabilize your privacy or used against you in the future.
How to delete Direct Messages in Discord
Deleting your direct messages is easier than you might think. The following information should bring you down the right path:
1] Open the Discord app
OK, so you should begin by opening the Discord app via desktop or the web, then sign in if prompted to do so.
2] Open the preferred chatbox
The next thing you should do here is to find and open the message area with whom you were speaking. To get this done, click on the name of the person you were speaking with, and right away, you should see your conversation history.
3] Right-click to Delete
In order to delete a comment for good, you must right-click on the comment itself, then select Delete Message. You will then be asked to confirm you want to delete this message. Click the Delete button to complete the task.
4] Shift + Delete Message
Alternatively, right-click on a message, then press Shift + Delete Message to remove the comment without having to confirm your action. Another way to do this is to hover your mouse cursor over the comment, then click on the More button. From there, click Delete Message.
