One method is to search for your friends in the search bar. Next, tap on the Friends tab next to the person&#8217;s name and confirm the removal. Alternatively, you can do this all at once if you&#8217;d like to. Here&#8217;s how. Read on to find out more. We&#8217;ll also discuss how to unfriend a group of friends without the need to unfriend the entire group.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_delete_non-interactive_friends\"><\/span>How to delete non-interactive friends<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re constantly annoyed by your non-interactive Facebook friends, you might want to remove them immediately. To do this, you can run a script on your PC that will automatically delete those friends from your Timeline. This method is especially helpful for people who do a lot of business or trade on Facebook. You can even defer unfriending and blocking to a later time if you&#8217;re really determined to remove them.<\/p>\n<p>To delete inactive Facebook friends, you&#8217;ll need to log in to Facebook and switch to the Features tab. Under &#8220;Delete Friends,&#8221; you&#8217;ll find a feature called &#8220;Remove non-interactive friends&#8221;. Simply click on this feature, mark the inactive friends, and delete them! This process may take up to two hours or even longer, so be patient. Remember that some people are temporarily hidden from view while you&#8217;re unfriending them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_remove_people_from_your_Restricted_list\"><\/span>How to remove people from your Restricted list<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have some friends who haven&#8217;t been able to see your recent posts, you can remove them from your Restricted list. This is an easy process that allows you to remove one friend at a time, or a whole group of people. To remove a friend, go to their profile page and tap the X icon in the top-right corner of their profile picture. After that, tap Finish to remove them from your Restricted list.<\/p>\n<p>To add a friend to your Restricted list, go to the page you want to edit. Click on the gray Friends heading in the left-hand column menu. In some cases, you may have to click on the blue More link to see this option. Select the Restricted list option. Once on the list, the person cannot see any of your posts. You can add them again later, however.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_delete_friends_without_unfriending_them\"><\/span>How to delete friends without unfriending them<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wanted to quickly and easily delete friends on Facebook, you&#8217;ve probably wondered how to go about it. Luckily, there are a few simple steps you can take. First, you&#8217;ll need to find the people you wish to unfriend. To do so, click on the three horizontal dots next to the name of the person you want to unfriend. Click Unfriend to confirm the action, and then choose if you want to unfriend all of their friends.<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose to delete a friend by clicking on the &#8220;Friends&#8221; button, which will hide all of their posts in your News Feed. Of course, this method is only effective if you have access to the person&#8217;s profile. However, it&#8217;s important to remember that you can always go back and view their posts and profile to find out if you want to delete them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_delete_friends_one-by-one_or_all_at_once\"><\/span>How to delete friends one-by-one or all at once<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to remove all of your friends, you must first sign in to Facebook. After you log in, you can search for friends you want to delete and click the edit icon next to their name. Once you have found the friends you want to remove, you can delete them one by one or all at once. The best way to do this is to locate each friend on your friends list and hover over their profile pictures. From here, you can select the &#8220;Unfriend&#8221; button.<\/p>\n<p>You can also delete your friends from a list by selecting the &#8220;X&#8221; icon next to their names. If you want to delete all of your friends at once, you should choose &#8220;All Friends&#8221; from the drop-down menu. Alternatively, you can delete all your friends at once by clicking &#8220;Edit Lists.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"410\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/O1w64F0DRpk\" height=\"229\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Delete Friends on Facebook Quickly?
