How To Cancel Your CapCut Subscription on PC
If you’ve been poking around trying to figure out how to stop that recurring CapCut Pro charge, you’re not alone. Sometimes, it’s not super obvious where to cancel, especially if you signed up through different platforms like the website or the Microsoft Store. The goal here is to make sure auto-renew isn’t catching you off guard next month, so following these steps should knock out most issues. It’s pretty straightforward, but yeah, Windows and apps like CapCut don’t always have the clearest paths for cancellation. Hopefully, this helps prevent accidental renewals and keeps your bank account happier.
How to Cancel Your CapCut Pro Subscription on Windows
Access Your Account via Browser
First, you’ll need to get into your CapCut account. That means opening up a browser — Chrome, Firefox, Edge, whatever’s quick for you. The reason this helps is because cancellation options are mostly handled online unless you signed up directly through the Microsoft Store. Just type in https://web.capcut.com or search for “CapCut login” if you’re not sure. Once there, click Sign In probably in the top right corner, and punch in your credentials. If you’re having trouble, double-check you’re logging into the account linked to your subscription, not some test or second account.
Find Your Subscription Settings
Once logged in, look for your profile icon—usually right on the top right. Click, then choose Account. From there, navigate to Your Pro Plan or similar. Sometimes it’s tucked under a “Subscription” or “Billing” tab. If you can’t find it quickly, try searching in the menus, especially if you’re on mobile or a weird layout. This is where stuff gets kind of messy because different versions of the site may show slightly different options, but generally, you want to get to your subscription details to control renewals.
Cancel Auto-Subscription or Auto-Renewal
Under your plan details, hunt for the section labeled Auto Renewal. It’s often a toggle or a button that says Cancel. Click that, confirm if prompted, and the service should stop trying to bill you automatically. The important part is to double-check that you see a message confirming the cancellation. Usually, your subscription isn’t immediately dead—think of it like a “pause” until the current billing cycle ends. This is why it’s key to verify the expiry date that shows up afterward. On some setups it took a couple of refreshes or logging out and back in, so don’t get worried if it seems stubborn at first.
Double-Check You’re Good
Refresh the page or your profile and see if the expiry date of your Pro plan reflects the end of your billing cycle. If it still shows an active renewal, try clicking anything that might say Manage Subscription or Billing Info. Some people reported that the cancellation process isn’t immediate; it might take a few minutes to register, or some users had to clear cookies or use a different browser. Basically, don’t assume the job’s done until you’ve seen that renewal is canceled.
What if You Signed Up Via Microsoft Store?
If the subscription was made through the Microsoft Store, you’ll need to cancel directly there. Sometimes, even if you use the web, that subscription is tied back to the Store. Open the Microsoft Store app on your PC, click on Profile (top right, three dots), then choose Subscriptions. Locate CapCut and hit Cancel. Because of course, Windows loves to make things more complicated than necessary. No worries — the cancellation will be reflected across your account, but it’s worth double-checking on your Microsoft subscriptions page or account settings online.
Extra Tips & Troubleshooting
- Log into the right account — I know, obvious, but easy to forget if you have multiple emails or accounts.
- If somehow the cancellation isn’t sticking or it’s not showing up, try clearing your browser cache or switching browsers. Sometimes, it’s just a loading hiccup.
- Check your email for a confirmation receipt or email from CapCut or Microsoft — that’s a good proof you canceled properly.
Wrap-up
Getting rid of the auto-renew isn’t always super intuitive, but it’s doable if you know where to look. Usually, it’s a matter of logging into your account, finding the subscription details, and hitting cancel. But if your subscription was through the Microsoft Store, you have to do it there. Just remember, the key is to check that your expiration date shows your plans ending without the next payment sneaking through.
Summary
- Log into the CapCut website or Microsoft Store app as needed.
- Navigate to your account or subscriptions area.
- Locate your Pro plan and find the auto-renew toggle or cancel button.
- Confirm the cancellation and verify the expiry date.
- If signed up via Microsoft, cancel within the Microsoft Store app.
Fingers crossed this helps
In some cases, the cancelation isn’t instant or might need a refresh or restart, but once you get it done, no more surprises on your bank statement. At least that’s the theory. Hope this shaves off a few hours for someone trying to dodge unwanted charges.
