The VirtualMachine resource was not found, it may have been deleted. If this was launched from a pinned tile on the dashboard, it should be removed.Resource ID: /subscriptions/57dc6d3e-3f28-4781-996b-c34de910d781/resourceGroups/proddmscogs1dewc/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/VM-k57j64nyu4yv647xh8uvnncu.218f280a,Status Code: 404,Status Message: Resource group 'proddmscogs1dewc' could not be found.

Failed to delete network interface 'NIC-k57j64nyu4yv647xh8uvnncu'. Error: Network Interface NIC-k57j64nyu4yv647xh8uvnncu is used by existing resource /subscriptions/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX1-996b-SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS/resourceGroups/proddmscogs1dewc/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/VM-k57j64nyu4yv647xh8uvnncu.218f280a. In order to delete the network interface, it must be dissociated from the resource. To learn more, see aka.ms/deletenic.

I tried everything, that i find, but nothing solve my problem.

Could you help me, please?

Thank you so much

Answer 1

Hi,
Try to delete any sub-resources for the main resource first. There are some resources like vaults, etc where you will need sub-resources like backup items and etc. before you can delete the main resource and thus the resource group.

Please "Accept the answer" if the information helped you. This will help us and others in the community as well.

Answer 2

Try to remove the NIC using the following command
Get-AzNetworkInterface | where-object { $.VirtualMachine -eq $null } | ft name
Get-AzNetworkInterface | where-object { $.VirtualMachine -eq $null } | Remove-AzNetworkInterface -Force

First command should give the network interface name. Second command should delete the interface
If you are able to succeed, you can delete the resource group

Answer 3

Hi Guys,

problem was with subnet, that was assign to NIC-k57j64nyu4yv647xh8uvnncu.

I have manually delete subnets, range of adress and then i was able to delete resource groups.

Have a nice day.
