At some point it will become necessary to remove a video that you have uploaded to YouTube. Maybe you uploaded the same video twice, maybe you were asked to remove it, or maybe it turned out to be more embarrassing than you can take. Follow these steps:


1. Go to YouTube and login to your account.

2. Select My Account from menu in the upper-right portion of the page.

3. Go to the Videos section, and select My Videos.

4. Find the desired video and click the Remove Video button.

5. When the confirmation box appears, click OK.

    you have to select that video and on the top u can find delete button and press on that

  26. DutchWaterr said on June 13, 2011

    Damn, what a bollocks to find just a bloody REMOVE button….
    I finally found it.
    What you need to do is the following:Select the video in the “my uploaded video’s section”
    On the top of your list of videos you see “add to” and to the righthandside of that “Actions”Click on Actions and immediately the first tab says “Delete” Don’t read over that, because that’s what I’ve been doing the past weeks trying to find it lol
