Hi,  
I created a plugin using ChatGPT plugin menu. Now I want to permanently remove/delete them, but I can’t find a way to do so.

Am I missing something or this is a missing feature?

Welcome to the community @msharifi99,

Could you clarify whether you mean a plugin installed in ChatGPT or a custom plugin/action you created yourself?

If it is an **installed** plugin, it should usually be removable from the Plugins page by selecting the plugin and choosing **Uninstall**.

Thanks,  
A custom plugin I created by myself. It’s in the personal tab under created by me section.

Thanks for clarifying.

This documentation confirms my earlier reply: uninstalling a plugin removes the plugin bundle from the ChatGPT or Codex environment.

> **[Remove a plugin - Plugins | ChatGPT Learn](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/plugins#remove-a-plugin)**
>
> Plugins bundle capabilities into reusable workflows in ChatGPT. They can include skills, connectors, or both. Plugins are available in Work mode in ChatGPT on the web and in Work mode or Codex in the ChatGPT desktop app. Codex CLI also has a plugin...

Hope this helps!

Correct, and that is the case for third-party plugins. however for personal plugins even after uninstalling them, they can still be found the in the plugin menu and there is no way to delete them permanently

Ah, thanks for confirming that bit.

I couldn’t find anything about an option to permanently delete custom plugins either. Maybe this would be worth submitting as product feedback?

I can confirm the same problem. Once a personal plugin is created, it cannot be deleted. We need the ability to delete these.

Second request, I’d like the ability to edit the logo of a personal plugin (currently we can change name and description, but not logo).

Good news, I found the way to delete it (of course after posting)

Welcome to the community @tristan.rhodes,

Oh that’s great!

I checked mine and I seem to be able to just _uninstall_.

But that’s a custom plugin?

Hi Larisa, nice to meet you.

Yes, this is an MCP server I built.

@tristan.rhodes Can you please share how you were able to get the “Delete” menu? I only see “Uninstall”

@bendavis78 For me, I had to install it first. Then, from the ChatGPT screen, I clicked my avatar, selected “Settings” in the bottom-left corner, and clicked "Plugins."

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/openai1/original/4X/d/f/4/df404d37ce3ea461c9d0122ccdb03ae808c7905d.jpeg)

From there, choose the plugin you want to delete. If you click the settings/kebab icon, you should see the `Delete` option.

This worked for me, so I hope it works for you too! 👍

I see that the icon next to your plugins is still a “+” icon. Which might mean you haven’t installed them yet?

It’s a bit counterintuitive, but you have to install the plugins first, and then you can delete them from the `Settings` page.

Thanks for clarifying—you mean removing your own plugin from Created by me, not just uninstalling it. Those are different: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/20001256. We haven’t confirmed a permanent-delete path for your exact plugin type. We’ll pass along that request and the logo-editing feedback; no timeline to share.
