How to Delete a Friend List on Facebook

by Simrandeep Singh on March 17, 2010

I have already shared how to create friend list on Facebook and filter updates of your friends on Facebook. Some users may find it difficult to delete the lists that they just created as there is no option on the homepage to delete a list. You can easily create a list or add more friends to your list from homepage but you can not delete lists from homepage. In this simple tutorial, you will find out how you can delete friend lists on Facebook easily.

How to delete a list on Facebook

Step 1. If you really want to delete a list, go to your Account drop down list at the top and select Edit friends from there.

Step 2. Now select a list in the left sidebar by clicking on it

Step 3. When you click on a list , you will see a list of friends in that list in the middle. At the bottom of the page you will see a link to Delete list. Click on that link.

Step 4. When you click on Delete list button, Facebook will prompt a message to confirm your request with a warning that This can not be undone. Click on Confirm button to confirm your request.

That’s all about deleting a list in Facebook. If you have any doubt in this tutorial, do leave your comments here :)

Do you know how to delete a list and everyone in it? I have a friends list of over 700 made fro mafia wars, and I want to delete everyone on it from my facebook account.

I don’t think that there is a way to delete all friends from a friend list. If I get the method then I’ll let you know.

Of course FB changes so frequently that this is no longer completely accurate, but it was close enough. Thanks for helping to fix this vexing problem.

Hi,
Was wondering if you could tell me how I could delete my current Facebook account and start a new one so I can continue playing the games, no friends. The problem is Ive purchased coins, points etc. and would like to keep them.
Thanks,
Sandra
