The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
I got a new e-mail address, and was able to add my new e-mail address to my account but unable to delete the old one.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @heckj Welcome to the Canvas Community. You didn't indicate if you're an instructor or a student, but the basic instructions for how to remove an email address are the same regardless and are (for the record...) covered here: https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10594-4212710336 under the Delete Email Address heading.
Assuming that's what you did, you will want to contact your institutional support to see if they have disabled this ability. Some institutions will not allow anyone to remove, for example, the institutional email.
I hope this helps a bit, Jaime. Stay safe!
