  • How to Make Facebook Account Completely Private on Desktop? In this tutorial, I show you how to make your Facebook profile completely private in a desktop browser on a PC, Macbook, or Chromebook. This means your Facebook account will be private including your Facebook profile, photos, birthday, email, future post, and past post. Making your Facebook profile private will also stop people from tagging you, seeing your comments, or likes. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions while making your Facebook profile and account private.

    Easy as cake to follow with dual monitors, watch and pause on monitor 1, make any changes needed on monitor 2, thanks for sharing.

    A little bit outdated on May 28, 2023 (a year later) but video is still helpful. FB got rid of the "location" option and there is something there instead (region), and your instructions there can't be follow. Couple other minor issues as well, but again still video was helpful. FB loves to make things hard for users. A simple script could get all these steps done in one second. Thanks.

    Great job! Everything went smoothly until the end when I got to changing the audience on photos. I clicked on individual photos as you suggested, and then the "...", but I wasn't given an option to edit the audience. The only way I could get that option was to select "Your Photos" which brought in the entire photo collection on my Macbook in addition to the ones on Facebook. Also, after making the changes you suggested, is there a way to now see what others will see on my profile? Thanks again. This tutorial was very well organized and presented.

    In Post and Stories, you selected "Only Me": for the FUTURE POSTS does that mean that NO ONE can see your posts? What is the reason for posting something if Nobody can see it ? or is there something I am not understanding ???

    Thank you for this, but it doesn't give me the "edit audience" option for any other photo except my main profile pic. Everything else is still public, and it's driving me crazy that I can't fix it. Any other ideas on how to fix this?

    I have a question please. If I change my bio settings to friends, they can't see it but they are suppose to be able to see it? They can only once its on public but if I change it to "friends" my bio disappear off their fb when they are on my account. Why's that? If I didn't want them to see it I would've changed it to only me. So the only option I have is public and thats not the option I want.. any advice?

      I did a quick search and it seems clearing your browser cache can help with this error. Hopefully this helps. Thanks!
