# Deleting a Notebook Instance

You can delete notebook instances that are no longer used to release resources.

1. Log in to the ModelArts management console. In the left navigation pane, choose DevEnviron > Notebooks to switch to the Notebooks page.
2. In the notebook instance list, locate the row where the target notebook instance resides and click Delete in the Operation column. In the dialog box that is displayed, click OK.

   Deleted notebook instances cannot be recovered. Therefore, exercise caution when performing this operation. However, the files created in notebook instances are still stored in OBS specified during creation of the notebook instances.
