# Release Claims

You can release all claims that are active, potential, disputed, or appealed. On these claims' [detail pages](/content-id/manage-claims/understand-claim-detail-pages.md), click the "Release claim" button:

After you've clicked the button and confirmed your action, your release request is submitted and usually processed by YouTube within 15 seconds.

Please note, due to YouTube's policies, if a claim is released during the dispute or appeal process, we will not be able to reclaim the video later.
