Why think twice?
Warning: This action is immediate and cannot be undone.
All running and stopped instances will be terminated.
Every disk, snapshot, and backup tied to Compute will be wiped.
Any remaining credits vanish when the account does.
You’ll be logged out the moment deletion completes.
If you just need a breather, you can pause or shut down instances instead. Feel free to contact Support to explore alternatives.
What you’ll need
Access to the Hivenet account you want to delete.
Any data you care about already downloaded to a safe place.
A quick check that you’ve used (or are willing to lose) any Compute credits.
Steps to delete your Compute account
Sign in to Hivenet and select Account → Settings.
Scroll down to Delete account.
Click Request to delete account.
In the confirmation window, tick every box to confirm you understand the impact.
Select Delete account.
That’s it—your Compute account and data are gone for good. We’ll log you out right away and send a confirmation email.
What happens next?
Your Compute resources are scrubbed from our network within minutes.
Any pending deployment or billing processes tied to Compute are cancelled.
Your Hivenet Store files and other services stay untouched. (Want to delete those too? Here is how.)
You can reopen Compute any time by signing in and creating a new workspace—just note that previous data and credits are not recoverable.
Note: For now, your Compute account is separate from your main Hivenet account. Deleting Compute won’t affect your access to cloud storage, file transfer, or other services unless requested separately.
Need another option?
If high costs or unused capacity are the issue, consider:
Stopping or deleting individual instances instead of the whole account.
Downgrading instance sizes.
