If you’re a Google user, you may have noticed that some of your pictures are no longer being displayed. This is because Google is deleting pictures as part of its " Picasa purge" program. To avoid having your pictures deleted, you’ll need to follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your Google account and click on the “Settings” button in the top left corner of the main screen.
  2. Scroll down and click on the “Photos” tab.
  3. Click on the “Delete pictures” button under the “Photos” heading.
  4. Enter a valid reason for wanting to delete your pictures and hit OK. Your pictures will be deleted immediately, but you can still access them if you want to keep them around for future use or if you want to share them with others online.
