How to Remove or Delete Add-ons and Texture Packs on Bedrock

After trying a lot of add-ons, your pack list can get long and messy, and old packs can take up space. There are three levels of "removing" a pack in Minecraft Bedrock, and it helps to know which one you need.

1. Turn it off in one world

  1. Press the pencil button next to the world.
  2. Open Resource Packs or Behavior Packs.
  3. Press the pack in the Active list and press Deactivate.

The pack is still on your device, so you can turn it on again later.

Careful with behavior packs. If an add-on added new blocks, items or mobs, they can disappear from the world when you turn it off. Make a backup first, see how to back up a world.

2. Turn it off everywhere

Go to Settings > Global Resources, press the pack in the Active list and press Deactivate. Worlds that have the pack inside them still keep it.

3. Delete it from your device

  1. Go to Settings and open Storage.
  2. Open Resource Packs or Behavior Packs.
  3. Select the packs you want to remove and press the delete button.

This removes the pack from your device. Worlds that used it keep their own copy if the pack was saved inside the world.

Deleting through the folder

On Windows and Android you can also delete packs straight from the com.mojang folder, in resource_packs, behavior_packs, development_resource_packs and development_behavior_packs. Close Minecraft first, and only delete folders you recognise.

Removing a pack from inside a world

Sometimes a world keeps loading an old pack even after you deleted it, because the world has its own copy. Deactivate it in the world's Resource Packs or Behavior Packs list. If it still comes back, the world has the pack stored in its own folder, and you can remove it from there with Minecraft closed.

Duplicate packs

If you see the same pack twice, you probably imported two versions. Keep the newest one, delete the other, and turn the right one on again in your worlds.
