If you decide that you no longer intend to use Facebook, it's easy to deactivate your account. When you deactivate your account, you're hiding all of your info on Facebook. No person will have the ability to contact you on Facebook or watch things you have actually shared, including your Timeline, status updates, as well as photos. If you decide that you would love to go back to Facebook, you'll still be able to reactivate your account and recover your old information.
Deactivating Facebook Account
* Click the drop-down arrowhead on the toolbar, then choose Settings.
* The Settings web page will certainly appear. Click Manage Account.

* Select a reason for shutting off the account. If you want, you can add even more information in the message box listed below. When you're done, click Deactivate.
* Select Deactivate Currently.
* Your account is now shut down. You'll have the option to reactivate your account any time by checking in to Facebook with your old account info.
