Hi, I played chess for the first time a few months ago. I knew so little that I lost a lot of games where I thought I was winning before I realised I was playing 10 minute chess and had just run out of time! I want to use the archive to look at games I played to look at my mistakes and see the good play of others.I I am improving! I would like to remove the other games. I know that they remaining on the chess.com system somewhere and still affect my rating but please chess.com can there be a clear answer on this? There is no delete button, if you cannot delete please say so.

 

Games played are never deleted and there is no option to delete them.

Why is reason for that? Curious... I too wanted to delete some of the junk bot games.

Bot games can be deleted now, just not games against other members. You just have to go into each game and click the delete option.

You only can delete a game you play with a bot.

2022. So it seems the feature was there through which you can remove the game from your archive but not from database of chess.com but even this feature is no longer available. Don't understand why, the rating would not get affected by this. One only want to hide a game or two (not getting the rating back)

How? I have been playing with some bots trying to figure things out and now I have many lost games in my archive, I know it doesn't do much, but like many others on this forum post I simply don't want people to think i resigned while played Martin. Thanks

How do you delete a chess game. There is no delete button.

You can't delete games against other members, just the newer saved games against bots.

there is now no delete button on games against Bots. Is this new, a bug, or is the button someplace else?

Its a bug and staff are aware.

The delete button still isn't there, perhaps someone can fix this?

It's there for me. Just go to the game and click the trash can at the bottom.

Unless you're talking about bot games, yes I see the trash can. But I am trying to delete a game with another player, not a bot, and the trash can isn't there.

You can't delete games played with other members, only bot games.
