How to view deleted contacts in “Contact” and return messages

03.05.2019

It often happens that a user registered on the VKontakte social network needs to remove a person from his friends list. However, not everyone can cope with this easily. There are users who are little familiar with site navigation and cannot understand its extensive functionality on their own. It is for such people that this article was written, which will help find the answer to the question: “ How to delete a friend in contact

?».

To do this, you need to perform the following list of actions:

  1. Log in to your account on the VKontakte social network.
  2. Go to the “My Friends”
    , to do this you need to click on the link to the left of the main photo of your profile (usually it is located second from the top).
  3. Once you get to the page with the list of people with whom you are friends, you need to find the person who is to be deleted. To do this, it is convenient to use the search bar (it is located at the top of the page and is indicated by a “magnifying glass” icon).
  4. We enter the first or last name of the person we want to delete into the search bar. The list will immediately give us a line with a thumbnail of the desired person.
  5. Opposite your friend's photo there will be a number of links that allow you to perform various actions. Click on the “Unfriend” link.
  6. After clicking this link, all other actions will become impossible. However, a small link “Return to friends”
    , which will allow you to add the person back to your friends list if he was deleted by mistake.
    But this is only possible while you are in the “My Friends” section;
    if you leave it, then instant recovery will be impossible.
  7. Once deleted, the person will be added to your list of subscribers and will still be able to view all your updates. To remove it from there too, you need to go to the page with subscribers.

  8. To do this, click the small link “My subscribers”
    , which is located directly under the main photo of your page.
  9. A window will appear with people following you. Select the person you just deleted by hovering the mouse cursor over him and click on the cross in the corner of the thumbnail with his photo. Then we confirm the action by clicking the “Continue”
    .
    So, the person will go to the “Black List”.
  10. After that, after an hour, or better yet a day, go to “My Settings”
    (to the left of the main photo on your page).
  11. Select the “Black List” tab.
  12. Next to the name of the deleted person, click on the link “Remove from list”
    . Refresh the page.

This is how you can easily remove a friend from your account permanently. In addition to this problem, users often have a question:

There is no magic button that will easily and simply restore a deleted photo or VKontakte ava. “Recover” link appears.

in case the photo was deleted by mistake. But if you have already left there, read this instruction to the end.

Deleted photos disappear from your page, but remain on VKontakte servers. This does not mean,

that it will be easier to recover a deleted photo (or avatar) and especially does not mean that anyone can look at your deleted photos. The fact is that it is easier for VKontakte owners not to delete photos completely, but only to remove them from the pages so that no one can find them.

Recovery methods

Despite the fact that the deleted photo is still somewhere out there, on one of the VKontakte servers, it is almost impossible to find it. To open this file, you need to know the exact link to it (many, many letters, numbers and at the end “.jpg”). Even if we knew part of this link, selecting the remaining options would take a very long time (longer than you might imagine).

Therefore, you need to try to take advantage of other, more realistic chances. The main thing is not to waste time.

Is there a photo left somewhere?

If it was a truly valuable photo or profile picture, then most likely it is somewhere else. For example, on your computer in a folder with photos, on your phone, somewhere on a disk or on a flash drive. Perhaps your boyfriend or girlfriend. If someone else made you an avatar, then that person probably still has it. One of your VKontakte friends can help you restore a deleted ava, if he liked it and saved it somewhere at home. Don't be shy to ask people!

A copy of the page in the Google search engine

If your page was open to everyone (or the album with the photo you were looking for was not closed), then the deleted photo could be saved in Google. From time to time, Google makes copies of all pages on the Internet and stores them for a while. This is called "in cache". There is a chance of recovery if not much time has passed since the deletion (no more than a week). But even if the photo remains there, most often it is possible to restore only the miniature (photo in a small size).

Check if your page is still in the Google cache - enter the address of your VKontakte page in the search bar (below) - for example, https://vk.com/id126494354

. The easiest way is to open your VKontakte page and copy the address here from the address bar of your browser.

Finding a saved copy of the VK page

Then click "Find"

A new page with search results will open. If you find something, open your saved page:

  1. Click on the small green triangle next to the page address.
  2. Select "Saved Copy".
  3. Click on it.

An example of what it looks like:

Now the saved copy of your page will open. If there is a photo there that you want to restore, open it and save it somewhere to yourself (usually you need to right-click on the photo and select “Save image as...”

).

If there is no green triangle at all, then there is no copy of the page in Google, and this method will not work.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. As usual, you may need to restore for several reasons. The most common case is the loss of access to it

(forgot your password, lost your phone number to which the page was linked during registration and now you can’t log into VK).
There are also possible options when the page was blocked
.

  • Your page might have been hacked
    , which is why you can’t log into Contact (the hacker might have managed to change the password). In this case, you will need to try to restore access to this page as described just above, i.e. use recovery tools:
  • https://vk.com/restore - if the account was linked to a phone number.
  • https://vk.com/restore?act=return_page - if there was no linking of the page to the phone number or you no longer own this number.

Browsing history or browser cache is a chance!

If you recently looked at this photo in full size, then it could remain in your browsing history or in the cache (temporary files) of your browser - the program with which you view websites. This is one of the real chances. And if you opened the photo using the “Open original” button,

maybe you can even find a link to the VK site where this photo is still stored.

You will need a program to view the cache. There are different programs for different browsers, download and run the one that is designed specifically for yours (Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer). If you're not very good with computers, it's time to stop touching anything and call a boy who is good at it to continue from there.

A page with programs for viewing the cache of various browsers: Web Browser Tools. Download the program for the browser used on this computer. Run it and look in the cache for image files (.jpg) of a sufficiently large size - among them may be the same deleted photo.

How to recover photos through support?

The last chance is to write to VKontakte technical support and ask to recover deleted photos. Do it as quickly as possible, you literally have only a few days! Give them the following information:

  • I accidentally deleted a photo, please restore it.
  • How many photos did you delete?
  • When exactly did I delete them and how exactly?

To avoid searching, you can create a new support request about deleted photos using this link.
