# The difference between deleting and disabling a user (Admin)

**Disabling** a user prevents the user from logging in to the system, however all of the user's videos and comments are still stored on the platform. At any time, the user can be re-enabled. Disabling a user does not free up a license for the User Limit set for your system.

**Deleting** a user completely removes the user from the platform and deletes all of the user's videos and comments. The user's content will be soft deleted for 30 days before permanent deletion. Deleting a user frees up a license for the User Limit set for your system.
