How to delete all your messages on Facebook (2013)

Among all the functions that Facebook offers one is still missing: the ability to delete all messages in one fell swoop. There is not, and probably will never be, a button that allows a delete all conversations in a chat with friends, all messages received, and all emails received on Facebook.
On this blog I pointed out long ago, a Chrome and Firefox extension that allowed you to delete all messages with a click. Unfortunately, that extension has not been updated since the recent changes to Facebook and has stopped working.
Then how are we able to delete all messages? For weeks it seems that the only alternative has been to delete all the conversations one by one, which requires a lot of patience and time.
Today, fortunately, we found a new method that allows you to clean up your messages page by deleting all conversations with one click.

How to delete all messages in one fell swoop

This new method is not an extension, not a software, or a hidden function of Facebook.
It’s a script that you can run from the main browser (see the guide), in one click.

Caution

The script erases ALL messages and conversations in one fell swoop. All Deleted messages cannot be recovered. Follow the guide only if you are absolutely sure you want to delete everything.
Help and Instructions
  • If you use Google Chrome drag the bookmarklet (link below) on the bookmarks bar of your browser (you do not see the bar? use the Ctrl + Shift + B).
  • If you’re using Firefox use this guide to learn how to show or hide the bookmarks bar and drag the bookmarklet (the “bookmark this” link below) on the bar.
  • If you’re using other browsers or if you need a more detailed guide read the article: How to run Javascript on Facebook
Here is the script to drag on the bookmarks bar. Click on the image with the left mouse button and drag it to the bookmarks bar of your browser.
Bookmark this
  • Now visit your message page on Facebook: CLICK HERE
  • Now click on the bookmarklet you dragged to your browser before. Within seconds the script will delete all the messages and conversations on the page.
