Deleting or Refunding CVD Instances
Last updated:2026-01-16 10:49:12
Scenarios
You can delete Cloud Virtual Desktop (CVD) instances by using the following two methods:
Manual deletion: You can manually delete or refund yearly/monthly subscription CVD instances that have not expired and pay-as-you-go CVD instances.
Automatic deletion upon expiration or overdue payment: Yearly/monthly subscription CVD instances are automatically deleted and released upon expiration.
Must-Knows
To avoid data loss, if the current instance is not in the Shutdown status, it is recommended that you actively shut down the instance before initiating deletion/refund.
After deletion, the system disk snapshots created for the instance will be automatically deleted.
After deletion/refund, all data will be cleared and cannot be recovered. Inform the user in advance to back up data.
Operation Steps
Deleting a Single CVD Instance
1. Log in to the CVD console.
2. On the CVD Instance List page, select the CVD instance that you want to delete or refund, and then click Terminate/Return in the operation bar at the top or choose Instance Operations > Terminate/Return in the operation column on the right.
3. In the pop-up window, reconfirm the instance, and then click Confirm to delete or refund the instance.
Deleting CVD Instances in Batches
1. Log in to the CVD console.
2. Select the CVD instances that you want to delete, and click Terminate/Return at the top of the list.
Note:
The deletion/refund processes for yearly/monthly subscription CVD instances and pay-as-you-go CVD instances are different. You cannot initiate deletion/refund for both types simultaneously. Perform the operations in separate batches.
You can delete or refund up to 10 CVD instances in a single batch operation.
3. In the pop-up window, reconfirm the instances, and then click Confirm to delete or refund the instances.
