Open the **More options** menu at the top of the thread and choose **Rename** or **Delete**.

AI Studio names a thread from your first message. Rename it when that name stops describing what the thread became.

## Rename

1. Open the thread.
2. Select **More options** at the top of the page.
3. Select **Rename**, type the new name, and confirm.

In the read-only view opened from the **Threads** page, select the title itself to edit it, then save with the tick.

## Delete one thread

1. Open the thread, or find its row on the **Threads** page.
2. Select **More options** at the top of the thread, or the row menu on the **Threads** page.
3. Select **Delete** and confirm.

A confirmation reads **Conversation deleted successfully**. Deleting cannot be undone. Export anything you need first: see [Export a thread](/help/ai-studio/export-a-thread).

## Delete several at once

1. Open the **Threads** page.
2. Tick the threads you want to remove.
3. Select **Delete** in the toolbar that appears, then confirm.

## If it did not work

- **Rename** is missing: you are not the author of the thread. Only the author can rename or delete it.
- **Failed to delete**: reload the page and try once more.
- A deleted thread is still in the sidebar: reload the page.
- You deleted the wrong thread: it cannot be recovered from AI Studio. Contact Support.
