Barath A · Accepted Answer

In AWS EC2, under Network & Security → Key Pairs, if you're seeing terminated or unused key pairs, it's natural to want to clean them up. However, there's a distinction to make: 🔍 Why You See “Terminated” Key Pairs Key pairs themselves do not get terminated — they are just stored in AWS and linked to instances. What you might be seeing is the status of EC2 instances (like "terminated") that were using that key pair, not the key pair itself. Key pairs stay in your AWS account until you delete them manually, regardless of instance status.
