About This Feature

Overview

Remove Session helps you organize the session list in WPS collaboration messages on Windows. After you remove a session, that chat no longer appears in the current list, while the cloud chat history remains available. If the other participant sends a new message later, the session appears in the list again.

This feature is useful for:

  • removing low-priority chats from the current list;
  • keeping the session list easier to scan without clearing cloud history.

Capability SummaryYou can right-click a target chat in the session list and choose Remove Session. This removes it from the current list view while keeping chat history in the cloud.Microsoft Teams lets users hide a chat, remove chat history, or leave a chat thread, with different outcomes for each action.Google Chat lets users hide or delete a 1:1 direct message, and deletion removes the user's own conversation history copy.Notion mainly provides Inbox notification archiving and read-state management, which is closer to notification cleanup than chat-thread removal.Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant provides chat history review and clearing for AI conversations, focused on document Q&A history rather than collaboration chat lists.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: the entry is directly available from the session list right-click menu for quick cleanup. Distinct: removing a session clears the current list view while keeping cloud chat history available for later follow-up.Compared with WPS: Teams separates hide, remove history, and leave into different actions with more distinct outcomes.Compared with WPS: Google Chat focuses on hiding or deleting a 1:1 conversation copy, with more limits for group scenarios.Compared with WPS: Notion does not provide an equivalent chat-session removal entry and is closer to inbox notification archiving.Compared with WPS: Adobe's related capability is designed for AI chat history, not collaboration session list management.

Overall Conclusion: If your goal is to tidy a collaboration chat list quickly while keeping the possibility of future follow-up, Remove Session in WPS offers a lightweight workflow for everyday communication cleanup. Other products provide related hide, delete, archive, or history-management actions, but their scope and results are not the same.
