I have a customer who is trying to delete a folder from the Deleted Items folder in her Online Archive, but the folder comes back with Folder Name (1) (2) (2). She does not have Ligation Hold or Retention Hold enabled. Any ideas?

    Does this user have the auto-expanding archive enabled?

    Once the auto-expanding archive has created an auxiliary archive space, you can't delete folders in the online archive: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/autoexpanding-archiving?view=o365-worldwide
