About This Feature
Overview
Remove Member is a participant management feature in WPS Office group chat on Windows. It lets an authorized user open chat settings and remove selected people from the current group conversation.
Core capabilities include:
- Open the chat settings panel from a group chat window.
- Select one or more members and remove them from the group.
- Keep the group chat active after the selected members are removed.
This feature is useful for project collaboration, temporary discussion groups, and participant cleanup after role changes. It helps keep the member list focused on the people who still need access to the conversation.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports opening chat settings in a group chat, selecting members, and removing them from the conversation. Removed members leave the current group chat. | Teams supports removing participants from a group chat with three or more people. Removed users can still see past messages but cannot send new ones or access future content. | Google Chat supports removing people from a group direct message. Removed users cannot participate and cannot check message history. | Notion lets workspace owners or membership admins remove members or guests from a workspace, which fits workspace-level access management. | Adobe Creative Cloud lets owners remove invited collaborators from shared collaboration, which fits file-level collaboration control. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The removal flow stays inside the group chat settings panel, so member cleanup can be completed directly from the current conversation. | Compared with WPS: Group chat removal is supported, but removed users can still view past messages. | Compared with WPS: Group DM removal is supported, and removed users also lose access to message history. | Compared with WPS: Focuses on workspace membership and page access rather than live group chat management. | Compared with WPS: Focuses on shared file collaborators rather than chat participants. |
