I have a resource group that I'm trying to delete and can't. I did not see any resources in the resource group but I get an error when trying to delete.

    Hi John
    Common Causes and Solutions for Resource Group Deletion Issues:

    • Resource Dependencies: Some resources (e.g., subnets, web apps) depend on others, preventing deletion.
    • Resource Locks: Locks on the resource group or its resources can block the process.
    • Subscription Status: A suspended or disabled subscription stops resource deletion.
    • Deletion Order: Resources may need to be deleted in a specific sequence.

    To resolve these issues, consider the following actions:

    • Remove any locks applied to the resource group or its resources.
    • Identify and address dependencies by deleting or reconfiguring dependent resources.
    • Check your subscription status and reactivate it if necessary.
