What is ChatGPT Bulk Delete
ChatGPT Bulk Delete (also known as ChatSweep) is a Chrome extension for deleting or archiving multiple ChatGPT conversations in batches. It adds checkboxes to the ChatGPT sidebar so you can select loaded chats, review the batch, and then delete or archive them from a single panel. The extension is designed to be deliberate and safe: it protects the currently open conversation, requires confirmation before deletion, and stops if page controls cannot be verified. It is an independent tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI.
How to use ChatGPT Bulk Delete
- Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store (desktop Chrome only).
- Open ChatGPT and launch the ChatGPT Bulk Delete panel.
- Show checkboxes and select the chats you want to remove from the sidebar. Only chats already loaded in the sidebar can be selected; to include older chats, scroll the sidebar to load more history, then refresh the extension’s selector.
- Review the selected batch and confirm the action.
- Choose Delete or Archive. Delete permanently removes conversations; Archive removes them from the sidebar while keeping their contents (available with Pro and Lifetime plans).
- During a cleanup, stay on the ChatGPT page and avoid switching tabs or interacting with the page. Leaving will pause the task; after a long absence, you may need to start again.
Features of ChatGPT Bulk Delete

FAQ
Which chats can I select?
Only chats already loaded in ChatGPT’s sidebar. To include older chats, scroll the sidebar to load more history, then refresh the extension’s selector. It does not automatically fetch your entire history.
Can it delete the conversation I’m using?
The open conversation is excluded from selection. If you switch into a selected chat while a cleanup is running, the extension pauses to protect it.
What’s the difference between delete and archive?
Delete removes conversations and usually cannot be undone. Archive removes them from the sidebar while keeping their contents. Bulk archive is available with Pro and Lifetime.
Does it read or upload my conversations?
It reads loaded sidebar titles to show your selection, but does not read message contents or upload chat titles. Only your account, billing status, activation and entitlement checks go to the server.
What happens if ChatGPT changes its website?
The extension checks the controls it needs before acting. If those controls or the result can’t be verified, it stops instead of guessing or retrying uncertain deletions. A later ChatGPT update may still require an extension update.
How do I activate a paid plan or cancel?
Purchase on the website, then sign in from the extension with the same Google account or verified email. Your paid plan syncs automatically—no activation code. You can manage or revoke connected browsers on your account page.
