The ability to archive posts on the photo sharing site is useful, as it hides posts from your feed. If you want to revisit it later or even un archive it, the likes and comments are preserved.

Maybe you have had an account for over a decade and want to make your feed more personal, or you have decided to use your account for business.

There are a few simple steps that can be taken to unarchify an IG post.
