Posting to Instagram from a computer or laptop via a browser

Previously, by logging in with your Instagram account on the official website https://www.Instagram.com/ you could not post photos ands, but you could watch other people’s photos, the functions of commenting, subscribing, likes and others were available.

Starting in May 2017, when you enter the site from a mobile device. Tablet or phone, you can add photos to Instagram, even without installing the corresponding application. This feature can also be used for publishing from a browser.

  1. Go to your browser (Google Chrome, Yandex Browser, Edge, Opera will do) on Instagram.com and log in using your account. The steps below are for Google Chrome.
  2. Press CtrlShiftI. The developer’s console will open (you can open it by right-clicking anywhere on the page and selecting “View item code”, a similar item is present in most browsers).
  3. In the developer’s console, click on the emulation icon for mobile devices (tablet and phone image), and then on the top line set your device, resolution and scale (so that it’s convenient to view the Instagram feed).
  4. Refresh the page using the browser refresh button.
  5. Immediately after the emulation of the tablet or phone is turned on, and the page is updated, a button for adding photos will appear in the open Instagram (if it does not appear, refresh the page). When you click it, you will be able to select files on your computer. Just select a photo and publish as usual.

Here is a new way that greatly simplifies the task.

The official Instagram app for Windows 10

After downloading the application and logging into your account (in my test, for some reason, logging in was done only by E-mail, but not by username), follow these simple steps:

  1. Click on the icon with the image of the camera in the upper left.
  2. At first use, you will need to allow the use of the webcam to the application. If you don’t have a webcam, then you won’t be able to add a photo, but you can get around this, more on that later.
  3. Click on the button to add photos from the computer (at the same time photos must be located in the Images / Camera Album folder on the computer, otherwise Instagram will not see them).
  4. Select a photo to publish.

As noted above, Instagram for Windows 10 requires a webcam. However, this can be circumvented: if you install a virtual webcam program (I used e2eSoft VCam), then the application will assume that the camera is present and allows publishing. Also, when testing the application, for some reason it worked very unstable for me.

How to add photos to Instagram from a computer using the official mobile application

Another guaranteed and working way for today is to upload photos ors to Instagram with only a computer. Use the official Android application running on the computer.

To run the Instagram Android application on your computer, you will need third-party software. An Android emulator for Windows or another OS. A list of free emulators and official sites where you can download them can be found in the review: The best Android emulators for Windows (will open in a new tab).

Of the emulators that I can recommend for publishing on Instagram. Nox App Player and Bluestacks 2 (however, in other emulators the task will not be more difficult). The following is an example of uploading photos using Nox App Player.

  1. Download and install Nox App Player on your computer. Official website: https://ru.Bignox.com/
  2. After starting the emulator, either go to the Play Store inside the emulator, or upload the Instagram application APK to the emulator (the original apk is easiest to download from apkpure.com, and to download and install in the emulator use the special button in the panel next to the emulator window).
  3. After installing the application, just launch it and log in with your account.
  4. The photo is published in the same way as with an Android phone or tablet: you can take a photo from the computer’s webcam, or you can select the “Gallery”. “Other” option to select the photo that you want to upload to Instagram in the “internal memory” of the emulator. But so far do not rush to do this, first, point 5 (since there is no photo in the internal memory yet).
  5. To get the desired photo from the computer in this internal memory or in the gallery, first copy it to the folder C: \ Users \ Your_Username \ Nox_share \ Image (Nox_share is the shared folder for your computer and Android running in the emulator). Another way: in the emulator settings (gear in the top line of the window) in the “General” section, enable Root access and restart the emulator, after that image files,s and other files can simply be dragged onto the emulator window.
  6. After the necessary photos are in the emulator, you can easily publish them from the Instagram application. In my experiments, when adding photos from the Nox App Player, there were no problems (but Leapdroid produced errors when working, although the publication took place).

In the BlueStacks 2 emulator (official site: https://www.Bluestacks.com/en/index.html) uploading photos ands from a computer to Instagram is even simpler: just like in the method just described, you will first need to install the application itself , and then the steps will look like this:

  1. Click on the “Open” icon in the left panel and specify the path to a photo or on the computer.
  2. BlueStacks asks with which application to open this file, select Instagram.

Well, then, I’m sure you know what and how to do, and publishing a photo will not cause you any difficulties.

Note: I consider BlueStacks in the second place and not in such detail, because I do not really like the fact that this emulator does not allow myself to be used without entering Google account information. In Nox App Player, you can work without it.

But can a be downloaded somehow by using programs?

Instagram is a pretty useful social network where you can easily share photos, apply filters, find friends and even start your own business. However, today many users want to delete the page on Instagram, because a large number of ads, Internet bots “climb” from everywhere.

Registration is always easier than leaving. Deactivation process “hidden” in your profile settings. That is why reporters from Channel 24 prepared material on how to permanently delete an Instagram account.

There are two options for how to do this:

  • Temporarily disable profile
  • Delete account forever

How to remove Instagram temporarily from your computer

1. The whole procedure is much easier to do through a computer. To do this, open the profile page and click “Edit profile

How to delete Instagram account correctly

The advantage of this method is that when you log into your account from the application again, it is automatically activated. There is another one that allows you to permanently delete an Instagram page.

How to remove Instagram forever

The founders prudently hid this option. To permanently permanently delete the Instagram page, you need to go to this direct link: https://www.Instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent/ and then indicate the reason for the removal, the password for the profile and click the button “Delete my account permanently

You can permanently delete an Instagram page.

How to remove Instagram from phone

The tab with the suggestion to delete the page on Instagram from the phone has recently been removed from the main profile settings page. The application is constantly updated, trying to keep the attention of users as long as possible, especially since the main functionality for creating and downloading photos is available from the phone.

1. To exit Instagram from your phone completely, scroll down the account settings page to the section “Information”.
2. Click on the link “privacy policy”.
3. Next, you have a long time to flip down the agreement. Stop at the section “Personal settings” (Paragraph 5).
4. Slightly lower (paragraph “Shelf life of materials”) you will see the phrase “Learn more about deleting an account.”)
5. Click on the active link and on the page that opens, select the option to delete the account.

Here, open the link to the removal page. Enter the username and password again. Next will be a familiar procedure indicating the reason for the removal and its confirmation.

Everything, you begin a new life. The old Instagram account carries too many traces of the past to leave it on the network. It doesn’t matter: you have changes in your personal life, you have changed your party affiliation, religion, musical tastes, or maybe it’s time to use the witness protection program.

Of course, if you decide to start a new life irrevocably, then the page should be deleted with all the data. Sometimes it makes sense to just leave it intact and start a new one by simply removing all links to it from other sources. Sometimes it is advisable to temporarily freeze your profile, and then return it.

The only question is: which way to choose and how to delete the Instagram page. Let’s try to consider the most important points of choice and methods of action.

Instagram account deletion

Think three times before doing this. In fact, you are committing Internet suicide; your photos, comments and locations cannot be restored later. Imagine how long it takes to win likes and followers on Instagram, if it is new! It is no coincidence that the developers hid the removal tools rather deeply and do not advise you how to delete the page on instagram.

If you do not see an alternative, except to delete the Instagram account, then this is done so.

From computer:

  • Go to www.Instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent
  • Choose a reason why you are deleting your account
  • Enter your password to confirm deletion
  • Enjoy the freedom!

You may have reposted Instagram photos on Facebook, VKontakte or other social networks. From there, they will probably have to be removed manually.

From a mobile device:

It makes no difference how to leave Instagram on an Android device or on an iPhone / iPad, just like on a Windows Phone. You still have to do this through the browser. And no matter if Chrome is Safari or Internet Explorer.

Open a browser, go to: www.Instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent and follow the instructions. It is as simple as deleting an Instagram account from a computer, and requires the same steps.

Why didn’t the developers insert the option to delete the account directly into the application?

  • Firstly, the creators of Instagram is not profitable for you to easily delete your accounts. The service should work.
  • Secondly, it is a safety measure. It ensures that you do not delete your profile accidentally.

Of course, there is one more trick on how to delete a profile on Instagram, but it’s, as they say, “below the belt”. If you want your page to be deleted permanently, break the rules of the service. For example, post a frank erotic photo or other prohibited content and wait for complaints. With a high probability, the administration, having noticed this, will delete your page forever for violation of the rules. Exceptions are not made even for stars: at one time, Rihanna lost her topless photo of her page.

Before you delete the page on Instagram via phone, delete the application. The last section of our article will be devoted to this.

Account Suspension

Recently, the Instagram administration has persistently invited users not to permanently delete their accounts, but to block them temporarily. After such a lock, your page cannot be opened until you yourself allow it. To unlock, you will only need to go back to the page with your username and password.

What are the benefits of temporary blocking?

  • Blocking an account is not as difficult as deleting an Instagram account from a computer or phone.
  • When blocked on the service, all your photos ands are saved. When you want to restore your account, they will all be back.
  • The lock can last as long as you see fit.
  • You will not lose the address of your account. After all, with a new registration on Instagram, your old address will be unavailable.

To block your account from a computer:

  • Go to www.Instagram.com/your_name via a browser
  • Open your account menu as shown in the picture.
  • Find in the bottom right corner the item “Temporarily block my account” and click on it
  • On the page that opens, select the reason for the block in the drop-down menu. For each reason, the service will offer you alternative solutions to the problem.
  • If you still want to block your account, enter your password from it in the field below
  • Press the red button “Temporarily block your account”

Done! Now visitors will not be able to see your page and photos from it. If during publication you broadcast your photos to other networks (VKontakte, Facebook, Foursquare / Swarm, etc.), you will have to delete the corresponding albums there manually, otherwise the photos may remain available.

Uninstall Instagram application

Perhaps you have nothing against the fact that your photos are available on the network, but do not want to receive notifications from friends or spend the resources of your smartphone on Instagram. Then it will be enough for you to remove the application from your smartphone or tablet.

This is done using regular methods for any mobile OS.

For Android:

  • Open Settings, select the General section, in it. The Applications item
  • Find Instagram apps in the list
  • Tap on it
  • Click Remove
  • Confirm the decision by clicking OK

Now the application will be removed from your device.

For iOS:

  • Tap on the Instagram icon and hold your finger until you go into edit mode
  • When a cross appears in the upper right corner of the icon, click on it
  • Confirm Deletion

For windows phone

  • Select Instagram (or 6Tag if you use this app) in the list of all programs
  • Tap on the name of the application and hold your finger until the menu pops up
  • Select “Uninstall Application”
  • Confirm Deletion

That’s it, now reminders from Instagram will not bother you, and you will avoid the temptation to “instagram” everything that catches your eye. Of course, your page will remain accessible through the browser, you can share photos already published and save copies of them in other social networks where you sent them.
