# Can you deactivate a user? Can you re-add a deactivated user?

## Yes, only "Owners" may deactivate users on their group account. Note: This action is permanent and the email cannot be used to reactivate or recreate the user account.

Only users with the "Owner" user role may delete or deactivate  a user from a group account. Please note, this permanently deactivates the user and cannot be reactivated/recreated using the same email address. 

**Steps to delete or deactivate a user:**

1. Navigate to the "User Management" tab.
2. Locate the desired user you wish to deactivate.![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-05-07%20at%204-59-50%E2%80%AFAM-png.png?width=2594&height=1628&name=Screenshot%202025-05-07%20at%204-59-50%E2%80%AFAM-png.png)
3. Click the "X" underneath the "Actions" heading.
