Google announces that inactive accounts will be deleted
has threatened to spoil Christmas for many people this year after sending out emails to users warning them that inactive accounts would begin to be deleted on December 1, 2023.
This decision will affect accounts that have not been active or signed into within a two-year period,. Users will also be notified if their accounts are up for the chop prior to deletion. Google’s email explicitly states that several emails will be sent to the account inbox, as well as recovery email accounts , before action is taken or any content is deleted.
The reminder emails will continue for a minimum of eight months before action is taken. It’s not clear if this means two yearseight months of notifications, or if the eight-month period is folded into the two years of inactivity. Once that time is up, the inactive Gmail account will be unable to be accessed or used to create a new Google account. If this sounds like it might affect you, here’s what you need to do.
