Delete All Photos in Google Photos Library?

[PerfectCr]

I know it's not this tool, but would it be possible to make a tool that deletes all your photos in your Google Photos Library? Google does NOT make this easy. Thanks for your hard work!

You can do this easily from Account Data.

Unless I am missing something, I’ve searched for days and explored all options and there is not very simple way to nuke your entire Google Photos library without manually going through each picture or deleting a few hundred at a time. Very tedious when you have over 75,000 pics in your account :( With that said if you are aware of a link on Google that deletes your entire library in one click I’d love to see it!

accounts.google.com -> click 'data & privacy' in left menu -> scroll down to 'Apps & Services' -> click on 'A summary of your services and data' -> delete a service -> delete a service -> delete google photos (or for me it shows google one, but I don't have anything in drive)

I appreciate you sharing this. However, Google Photos does NOT show up on this list, and further, under Google One, it says “ Your photos and videos stored in Google Photos will not be deleted by this action. You can delete your photos and videos at photos.google.com”

Basically Google makes it impossible to bulk delete your photos.
