But in 2019, a new feature was added to this network so that users can delete it immediately if they make a mistake. Two-way deletion of Telegram messages was a feature that many users welcomed. But now many are looking to prevent two-way deletion of Telegram messages, which we are going to discuss in this article.

How to prevent two-way deletion of messages in Telegram?

When you upload a personal photo of yourself or your family in a workgroup and suddenly notice this error, the first thought that comes to your mind is to delete that photo. So as soon as you upload and send a personal photo, you can immediately delete it by clicking the Delete option for all members and prevent others from seeing that photo.

But two-way deletion of messages in Telegram has the advantage that you can immediately delete it for others as soon as you make a mistake. To delete for everyone, you have the Delete for all Member option in front of you, which you should check.

But if you want the message to be deleted only for you and remain in the group or chat with the contact, you must check the Delete for me option. In the past, the “Delete for me” option was enabled by default, and if you left it unchecked, the image would be deleted for you, but your audience or group members would still be able to see it.

When you want to delete the image of both parties (you and members of the contact or group), you must check the Delete for all Member option. To prevent two-way deletion of Telegram messages, you must check the Delete for all me option.
