How to delete a comment in VK: yours and someone else’s all the time from your phone and computer

How to delete comments on VK if you wrote something stupid and want to quickly hide it from prying eyes? Finding a suitable solution and answer to the question posed will not cause difficulties, since users only need to use the functionality of the social network and get rid of the ill-conceived entry. The situation with deleting other people's thoughts is a little more complicated. In this case, the possibilities will be limited, and in some cases, only the Vk administration, which is obliged to monitor compliance with the rules for using the site, will help get rid of an offensive or offensive response.

How to delete your comment on VK?

Deleting a thoughtless comment left will not cause difficulties, since the user will have to make a few clicks to get rid of what was written forever:

The first thing you need to do is open the page with the answer you left earlier.
Then you should find in the discussions the thought that needs to be deleted.
The last step is to click the small cross next to the published words.

After that, all that remains is to check whether the desired result is obtained and make sure that the unpleasant or obsolete entry disappears. There is no need to do anything additional.

How to delete someone else's comment on VK?

If a person wants to remove someone else’s answer under a post, post or photo, it needs to be recorded:

on the page or account of the user who hopes to get rid of the unpleasant message;
or in a community where the offended individual has administrator, manager, or moderator rights.

Additionally, you can send the commentator to a blacklist or remove all his recent messages. Editing the written text is prohibited.

In addition, you won’t be able to hide text you don’t like on someone else’s page.

Enter the section where the profile is edited.
Direct the cursor to an unnecessary comment.
A cross will appear, you need to click on it.
A window will open in which you need to confirm the action.
Click on delete comment.

How to delete a comment on VK from your phone under a post, in discussions and in a group?

Returning to the topic of applications, it should be emphasized that the deletion process in the mobile version of Vk will be identical to that described above. The only difference is that a small arrow appears next to the entry, which shows a list of available actions. By clicking on the arrow, the user will see a list of possible actions with the text, including a suggestion to remove or edit it.

To the above, it must be added that the restrictions provided for other people's pages and groups remain. You won't be able to bypass them using your smartphone.

Solving problems with violators

There is only one way to remove someone else's comment under a photo on another person's page. It consists of a complaint to the administration of a social network about an insult received or an illegal publication. To do this, click on the familiar cross and select the reasons for the complaint from the list provided. If support agents consider the request to be justified, they will delete the text themselves.

It is worth noting that removing a person from the blacklist does not delete previously left replies. Moreover, if you are blacklisted, you still have the ability to edit old reviews and thoughts. It is worth taking this fact into account when leaving separate messages.

How to recover a deleted comment on VK?

Having figured out how to delete a comment in VK under a photo, it remains to find out whether it can be restored. Theoretically, it remains possible to return a deleted post in a group or on a wall, but the text must be restored immediately after deletion, using the corresponding inscription that appears in the place of the missing post.

If you refresh the page, you won’t be able to return and view what you deleted, and then you’ll have to look for the commentator in your contact list and ask him to leave a review again.

Computer instructions

VK users can leave comments on absolutely all posts - photos, videos, news, posts. Every time this happens, you receive a notification and you can immediately delete unnecessary comments if you see fit.

Your comment

So, if you left a comment under someone’s post or news from a group, and now you want to delete it, then there are several ways. Each of them is applicable for different cases and now we will analyze them in more detail.

Old comments

If some time has passed since the publication of your opinion and you have forgotten where exactly, then you can find and erase it using the following methods:

Method 1:

Log in to your account.
Open the "News" section.
On the right, find the “Comments” button and click it.
You'll see all the posts and can find your recent comments underneath them.
Well, we already know how to delete text using a cross.

Method 2:

Open a new browser tab.
Paste the code there https://vk.com/feed?obj=******&q=§ion=mentions.
Now go to your page.
In the address bar, copy the numbers from (or alphabetic characters if you changed the short address of your account).
Return to the browser tab with the code.
Replace ******* with the copied numbers or letters.
You will see a page with comments from other users who responded to you.
Having opened the desired post, find your entry and erase it with a cross.

The second method is perfect for deleting a comment in a contact in a group if you don’t remember where and when you wrote it, but you still receive notifications about other people’s replies. So, with the help of other people's comments, you can find your own.

By the way, every time someone writes a response to your comment or likes it, you receive a notification that contains a link to the post under which the discussion is taking place. You can follow it and delete your comment by finding it among the others.

Someone else's comment

If you need to delete someone else's comment on VK, then the algorithm of actions is almost the same. However, not all other people's comments on VK can be deleted. But let's talk about everything in order.

Comment on the wall

If your page allows all friends to comment, then you should be prepared for messages to appear periodically under your posts, photos and news. It’s very easy to delete such a comment in VK:

Go to your page.
Open the entry that needs to be “cleaned”.
Hover over the unwanted comment.
Delete it with the cross that appears on the right.

You can remove other people's comments under your photo on VK using the same sequence; you just need to first open the desired photo. Also, in this way you can keep order on the wall in the group if you are its admin.

But remember, if you have been cheating comments on your page or in a group, it will take a long time to get rid of them!

Comment in notifications

As we noted above, if someone tags you in their comment, you will receive a notification. It’s just that you won’t be able to delete these comments yourself, but you can involve the site administration. True, this will only bring results if the comment violates the rules of VK.

In any case, you need to do the following:

Go to your VK page.
At the top, near the search bar, there is a bell icon.
Click it to activate the alert window and select "Show All".

There's a Profile Notifications field on the right where you can select a setting to view Replies or comments from Friends.

Hover over the text and select "Delete".

When you report a comment, it will no longer be visible only to you; other users will see it. Only VK moderators will completely delete it if the complaint is true.

This method is great for tracking other people's comments in groups. You won't have to re-watch the entire discussion, and only posts in which you are mentioned will appear in notifications each time.
