footprint from Instagram. This tool allows you to remove your activity from Instagram.\n\n### Inspiration\n\nInstagram's in-built feature to remove your digital footprint from Instagram is not good. It has a lot of rate limits and the official client doesn't allow you to perform more than 100 actions.\nHence, this tool was developed to facilitate the process of removing your activity from Instagram\n\n### Built Using\n\n* [![Python][python-badge]][python-url]\n* [![Instagrapi][instagrapi-badge]][instagrapi-url]\n\n## Getting Started\n\nYou can currently run this tool on your local machine.\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n* Python \u003e= 3.9\n\n### Installation\n\n1.

Install required packages\n\n    ```sh\n    pip install -r requirements.txt\n    ```\n\n## Usage\n\n1. Rename sampleconfig.ini to config.ini and fill in the details\n\n2. Under the `[tasks]` section of config.ini, set whether to fetch the liked posts list from Instagram, or use Instagram export file _[(How to use export file?)](https://github.com/sudoalphax/instagram-redact/blob/main/handlers/README.md)_\n\n3. Activate virtual environment\n\n    ```sh\n    venv\\Scripts\\activate.bat\n    ```\n\n4. Run main.py\n\n* You can create a task to run the main.py on system startup:\n\n## Roadmap\n\n* [x] Unlike all liked posts\n  * [x] Unlike posts from export file\n* [ ] Delete all comments\n* [ ] Unlike all liked comments\n* [ ] Unsend all messages in a chat\n* [ ] Delete all comments on your post\n* [ ] Delete all posts\n  * [ ] Delete all individual type of post (Photo, Video, Reel, etc)\n* [ ] Delete all highlights\n* [ ] Delete all collections\n* [X] Simplified Login Process\n  * [ ] Multi-account support\n* [x] Uninterrupted running\n  * [x] Cloud server support\n\n\u003c!-- CONTRIBUTING --\u003e\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are what make the open source community such an amazing place to learn, inspire, and create.
