# Delete Files and Links from Chatter Feeds

Only a file owner can delete files. Users with the “Modify All Data” permission can delete all comments, posts, files, and links.

- To delete a link from a Chatter feed, simply delete its post.
- To delete a file from a Chatter feed on a record:
    
    - Delete its post. This action not only deletes the post, but also removes the file from the feed and from the Notes and Attachments related list. The file remains in its original location. If the file isn't posted anywhere else, it goes back to being private, but can be shared again later.
    - Click **Del** next to the feed attachment on the Notes and Attachments related list. This action removes the file from all Chatter feeds where it’s been shared. It also deletes the file from the Notes and Attachments related list. You can restore the file from the Recycle Bin. If the file was attached from your computer, a Chatter feed, group, or a Salesforce CRM Content library, deleting it from the Notes and Attachments related list removes it from the post, but not from its original location.
- To delete a file from a file detail page:
    
    Click **Delete** on a file's detail page to delete the file and remove it from all locations where it's been shared. If the file was shared via link, anyone with the link no longer has access to the file once it’s deleted. You can restore the file and all the shares that were associated with it by removing it from the Recycle Bin.
- To delete a file from a content detail page:
    
    From the content details page, click **Edit** | **Delete Content** to delete the file. Deleting a Chatter file from the content details page deletes the file from Salesforce CRM Content and from Chatter.
