Delete a shared vault
In a family, the vault's owner or a family owner or admin. In an organisation, owners, admins and vault managers. Everyone loses access at once.
Steps
Switch to the vault, open Sharing › Shared by me and find Vault settings › Delete this vault (admins can also use Admin console › Vaults & sharing › Company vaults).
Choose Delete vault, type the vault's name to confirm, and confirm two-step verification if it is on for your account.
Everyone in the vault loses access immediately. The encrypted contents are erased after 30 days.
Good to know
- Your personal vault can't be deleted. To start again, reset it: Vault settings › Reset vault erases everything in it for good and keeps the empty vault (close your account to remove it entirely).
- Members of an organisation don't delete company vaults, even ones they created: they ask to exit instead (see Organise your vaults).
- A family's main vault can be deleted only while nobody else is in the family and it isn't paid for. An organisation that pays or has other people keeps at least one vault.
