# Deleting a snapshot from a Snowball Edge with Amazon OpsHub
<a name="delete-snapshot"></a>

If you no longer need a snapshot, you can delete it from your device. The image file in Amazon S3 is a .raw file that is imported to your device as a snapshot. If the snapshot that you are deleting is used by an image, it can't be deleted. After import is completed, you can also delete the .raw file that you uploaded to Amazon S3 on your device.

**To delete a snapshot**

1. Open the Amazon OpsHub application.

1. In the **Start computing** section on the dashboard, choose **Get started**. Or, choose the **Services** menu at the top, and then choose **Compute (EC2)** to open the **Compute** page. All your compute resources appear in the **Resources** section.

1. Choose the **Snapshot** tab to see all snapshots that have been imported. You can filter by snapshot ID or state of the snapshot to find specific snapshots. 

1. Choose the snapshot that you want to delete, and choose **Delete**. You can choose multiple snapshots.
