"deleted from" is the best choice. "deleted off" is used by some people but feels substandard to me. "deleted of off" is impossible.

  • "deleted from" is the best choice.

  • "deleted of off" is impossible.
  • You may have meant to type "off of".
  • To me, "off of" is the most horrible abomination, but opinions vary.
