Unable to Delete Chat in ChatGPT

Hi folks!

Please report ChatGPT issues to help.openai.com and use the icon in the bottom right corner to access the support system.

Brilliant workaround, thanks. Although yeah, it’s amazing how buggy the web client is and has always been. The contrast to the amazingness and utter universe-shaking brilliance of the AI side of things is insane.

Thx that worked like a charm!

same here I tried everything from extensions to manual but nothing works

There is a workaround for this issue until the OpenAI team resolves it. Archive this chat, go to Settings > General > Archived Chats, and then delete it.

Go to Archived Chats on Settings and delete it:

Yes, I’ve been having that problem too. It was starting to drive me crazy! Glad to hear it’s “a thing” and not just my ChatGPT account.

Same issue. can delete all chats and that works. but the usual popup conformation box for the … delete on the sidebar doesn’t appear. “Which brings us at last to the moment of truth, wherein the fundamental flaw is ultimately expressed” … GPT no delete good.

That worked! Good looking.

I just tried it and this works! Thanks!

Same here just started happening after I updated Chrome and other browsers.
And I don’t archive any chats so this is still a bug.
