How to re-enable your hidden YouTube channel
What's the story
Sometimes, YouTube users may see a message saying, "Your YouTube channel has content but has been disabled."
The notification means that the user's channel is hidden at the moment, making all videos and other content invisible to others.
The hidden status can be triggered if a user opts to hide their channel via Google account settings.
To make your content viewable or access other features, you need to activate the channel. Here's how.
Restoration process
Restoring a hidden channel
To restore a hidden YouTube channel, users first need to sign in to their account.
Next, they need to create a channel by filling the form without selecting the option "To use a business or other name, click here." This will restore the existing hidden channel instead of creating a new one.
Once they recreate their public channel, they can make their videos and playlists viewable on the Videos page.
Brand Account restoration
For a hidden Brand Account
For those with a Brand Account, restoring a hidden YouTube channel is a bit different.
After signing in to YouTube, tap on your profile picture and head over to Settings.
From there, select Account > Add or manage your channel(s).
Now, choose the hidden channel and confirm by clicking OK when prompted to create a channel.
This will restore access to previously hidden content on your Brand Account.
